Custom Poller for Barracuda Spam Firewall 600

From what I can find those are both outbound

extOutput.1 (1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101.1) : number of filtered messages (integer)

extOutput.2 (1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101.2): number of spams detected (integer)

From the description I wouldn't find it unusual for both to have the same value. Maybe I'm missing something?

That might be my problem as I am trying to create a poller showing the number of messages in both the in and outbound queues using those OID numbers. If they are both for the outbound queue that would be why they are showing the same thing. The only problem is that both are showing 13 and the correct amount of messages in the queue is 25

Thanks Again

Andy,

            Would you happen to know the OID's Needed to monitor the inbound and outbound Queues for the Barracuda 600

kkennah,

What you are describing is the net-SNMP extend functionality.  Since you're getting responses from the UCD-SNMP-MIB::extResult.1 (1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101.1) OID, that tells me the Barracuda isn't running the latest version of net-SNMP as the exec & sh commands have been depreciated and replaced using the extend command in the snmpd.conf file.

If you have shell access to the Barracuda, less the snmpd.conf file and look at the exec commands in the file.  You should see something similar to this:

exec NAME /PATH/TO/SCRIPT SCRIPT_ARGS

Here is a good link that explains how to use the SNMP Extensions.

If you do have shell access, you might try running the command:  mailq

I know this works for postfix and sendmail daemons and will show you the current outbound mail queue.  The command qshape will show any messages waiting for delivery and how long they've been waiting.

Hope this helps.
