SNMP Proxy and create multiple nodes.

drognan

Hi,

I have a server that logs performance data from low bandwidth remote modems in mysql and then provides this data via SNMP.   The OID's come out as ......1.1.2.4.<modemid> where the modem id is a number(thats just an example, point is the identifier is at the end).  I have this working with custom pollers for one modem but it shows up under the server.  Is there a way to pull out this data and display each modem's stats as their own node? (with the pretty red and green dots on the map that management loves)

 
I'd like to do it the solarwinds way, but I have a feeling it's not gonna happen because when I try and add another node with the same IP it knows it's already in there.  I'm prepared to do a hack job to get it working but I'd rather use the standard available features.

 

Thanks,

After further research I find it's using SNMP tables, which Orion doesn't support according to the posts I'm reading on here.   

 

From another post: 

"Get Table will not be in 8.5; however, we are still hoping to get this feature into a release in 2007.

 It's getting close to the end of the year, and people want good monitoring now.  Should I wait or just load up Nagios now?
