Cisco Serials Again

Question

OK, so I have gone through the posts and see a number however there is nothing absolute when it comes to Cisco serial reporting. It seems that switches specifically respond to different OID than the routers. I am trying to get proper output from Cisco 3750 Stack switches and it seems if you do snmpwalk and try to list all serial numbers and models in a stack the successful output is something like this... x001,y001,z001 for both chassis type and serial numbers with each corresponding to relevant stack members. I can query this from command line and get result just fine however this does not work from Orion although entering 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.11 does work for routers.. A side not I see entries where people have been able to get custom pollers to list in reports however we are running 9.0sp2 and in report writer "universal poller" is not an available option.. Any help appreciated...

SNMP walk output... Trying to get the same in orion and output to report writer...

SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.11.1001 = STRING: "FDO1229xxxx"
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.11.2001 = STRING: "FDO1229yyyy"
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.11.3001 = STRING: "FDO1229zzzz"
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.13.1001 = STRING: "WS-C3750-48PS-S"
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.13.2001 = STRING: "WS-C3750-48PS-S"
SNMPv2-SMI::mib-2.47.1.1.1.1.13.3001 = STRING: "WS-C3750-48PS-S"

Thank you Casey, setting up the report the way you specifed works great. I was using the Inventory template and this did not list custom poller. The first half of the question is remaining and that is the fact that if I create custom pollers with the more specific OID than 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.11.XXXX or 1.3.6.1.2.47.1.1.1.1.13.XXXX Solarwinds will list no response... The switches respond fine with snmpget so what Do I have to do to make Solarwinds function with the more specific ones which I seem to need for 3750 clusters? Many thanks ..

In Report Writer, we still refer to Universal Device pollers by the old custom poller name.  However, I was able to create a report somewhat like what you were looking for.  First you'll want to create a new report of "Current Status of Nodes, Interfaces, etc".  From there, add a new field and expand the fields under "Custom Pollers (Current Status)".  You're probably using a node poller, so look at the fields under than and you sohuld be able to get close to what you've requested above.
