Best MIBs to use for DMVPN tunnel status

I'm trying to find a MIB poller that will let me know the status of our DMVPN tunnels. The tunnel status is always up, so I was looking for MIBs that could give me the state of the crypto isakmp sa command. I found some isakmp MIBs in the universal device poller but they were not supported on the devices I was trying to use them on (3945s, 2811s). I also looked for any MIBs that would pull NHRP information and came up empty on that as well.

So, I'm looking for advice on what other have done to monitor their DMVPN tunnels.

Any input is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Tammie

HI Tammie--

Have you done a MIB walk of your device to locate the OID you want? We offer a product that does that and you can try it for free at:

http://www.solarwinds.com/products/toolsets/MIBWalk.aspx

Once you get the OIDs you want, you can create a custom poller using the OID to poll the device.

You can also add post any OIDs you want added to the SW MIB to our Unknown Devices Thread

HTH,

Hi Tammie,

I'm facing exactly the same problem you are, if you have any progress please update here, I will do the same.

Henrique--

Did you try doing a MIB walk per the instructions in my post? That should help you.

Let me know,

All, How quaint of Cisco not to include that yet!

I am working with our Tech Rep about thhis very issue and it is his understanding that Cisco realizes that we need that in a MIB!!!!

The way we are exploring a solution is to use BGP Neighbor pairs and use the IP addresses to determine status first. After that, we are going try to see about amounts of data. Try that and write back if YOU make better progress.

I have discovered that if a Cisco router is running 12.4(20)T or above OR if it is running 15.n, NHRP MIB is supported. You should read the following article from Cisco:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/sec_secure_connectivity/configuration/guide/sec_dmvpn_nhrp_mib_ps10591_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html

I have not been able to use it yet but I am looking at the IOS of some candidate routers that might allow me to build a Custom Poller for this.

Hi Craig,

Thanks for your help, but this option only works for cisco ios 15.0 and above. I am trying to get an option for cisco ios 12.4.

Hello Craig, I have gone through your post but I see it is applicable on NCM. I don't see NCM in my SolarWinds. Please help how to do it on NPM?
