Question

Monitor physical interfaces of FTG cluster with SNMP

Hello,

I'm trying to detect when physical interfaces get down on a cluster (Active / Passive) with snmp get.

I can see physical interfaces descr at oid iso.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1 and iso.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7 but I can't find the ifOperStatus.

It doesn't seems to be a IF-MIB.

I think iso.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1. refers to the active FTG. So I could use IF-MIB oid to get the interface status of the active member.

How to get the status of Passive member physical interfaces?

 

Thanks

    You get the values from the slave unit by appending the serial number to the SNMP community:

    instead of

    "public"

    you use

    "public-FGT200ETK1234567"

     

    The master unit will then forward the request to the slave unit and communicate it back.

    Hello,

     

    Thanks for the answer. But I'm must use snmp v3. So I can't use the community.
