Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::numberOfBoards
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.1.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::numberOfBoards.1
How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor
Select a Fore Systems ForeRunner ATM switch as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and locate numberOfBoards under the utilization branch of Fore-Switch-MIB, then select it and click OK. It reports the number of switch boards currently installed in the ATM switch chassis. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an Integer32-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the board count drops below the expected chassis configuration, which would indicate a board has failed or been removed. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
