How SNMP Works - a quick guide

[@leonardolourencocrespilhoh511]

Man... I saw literally dozens of videos trying to understand OIDs and MIBs and I failed every time. I had even given up. This is the best explanation for sure! Thanks a lot!

[@PriyaSharma-bb8qt]

I TOTALLY AGREE!!..

[@x7331x]

Exactly the same, watched and read tons of stuff and they all caused more harm than good. This video is gold!

[@andyle3016]

Best 5 minutes of my life spent.

[@nagiosvideo]

We think its pretty useful too!

[@blasaloth]

Paid for 2 Network+ courses from different vendors and neither explained MIBs and OIDs this well. Thank you.

[@sahmad2084]

bset vedio for SNMP in simple way :) thxxxxx from palastine

[@nagiosvideo]

Most welcome 😊

[@rleo015]

The presenter does such a fantastic job of explaining it in an easy to understand way. Great job!

[@nagiosvideo]

Thank you Ryan! We'll pass that on to Aaron. Stay tuned: he has more great SNMP videos on the way!

[@shivamgarg3491]

I am a servicenow developer, in servicenow we have service mapping which is using OID and MIB concept, after watching this video it is very simple for me to understand it

[@nagiosvideo]

Great, We're glad this was helpful!

[@AmazingJayB51]

Seems like a great instructor, he seems to enjoy teaching.

[@berndmayinger7218]

Wow...I rarely comment below videos but this here deserves it. At first I was wondering how you could pack all your stuff from the agenda in (understandable!) 6 minutes, but you were able to manage it. Amazing work.

[@nagiosvideo]

Glad it was helpful!

[@simplemoose]

Yo, honestly. I love watching this video. The way you talk, the flow of the subject, and the structure of the video makes everything seem very welcoming and easy to understand. I dig this video a lot. It might be because of how sleepy I am having a good time goodnight.

[@Aerospaceman]

This is a very good and simple to understand video with a good flow, I'm studying for my CEH - already have my SEC+ and this video hits the spot. Thank You

Great video Aaron thanks for your advice

[@anupamsharma974]

Loved it. Thanks for making it so simple for a non-IT guy like me :)

[@frighteningspoon]

It should be said that v2c and v3 substantially increases the load on devices since they need to authenticate each one with the given information. This is usually just a concern for big networks

[@hassaanahmed9225]

Simple and smooth. Great explanation. Thanks

[@jaymarks8166]

best explanation and to the point! Great video!

Wishing you great success with your interview Erica! You got this! 🙌🏼

[@politicafederal]

Thanks for the best explain of MIBs andd OIDs

[@ComatoseMN]

Thanks for the explanation!! On an unrelated note, there’s a channel on KZbin called ‘ETA Prime’ that mostly dabbles in single board devices like Raspberry Pi. You sound JUST like that guy. Your voices are eerily similar. Anyway, thanks again!! >M

[@Gentlemanspot]

[@nagiosvideo]

Thank you!

[@SurajKumar-ji7bn]

Thanks a lot ! Fast info :)

[@nagiosvideo]

You're welcome!

[@brusslee1814]

word based oid = mib?

[@nagiosvideo]

Basically, a MIB is a file that details out information about different OIDS but can be easily compared to a DNS where domain names (words) are converted into IP addresses.

[@robertgeorge5020]

you should teach networking on here. I would def support you through patreon

[@MrMeshari10]

Great video, thanks!

[@jordanobinna5593]

Greats explained

[@АлександрМилко-я1с]

Brilliant

[@nagiosvideo]

We're glad it was helpful!

[@famfeld]

Thanks for the useful info. I appreciate it.

[@JamesOfKS]

head check for me: a MIB outlines the friendly names for OIDs and OID are 'addresses' to specific monitors. and traps are the results of your monitor being sent back to you?

[@slick_G]

great explanation!

[@nik01aich]

Я очень плохо знаю английский язык, но понял всё, что пытался сказать автор, очень качественное видео!

[@ijyoyo]

Interesting video thank you

[@nagiosvideo]

You're very welcome!

[@888katui]

Can you show how to monitor Cisco WLC please cause now I stuck with it thanks

[@nagiosvideo]

Hi Katui, thanks for your question! We would monitor that device just like any other. First, we would identify which metrics we want to monitor on the device. Then we would find the OIDs associated with the things we want to monitor. Then we would use a network monitoring system like Nagios XI to actually do the monitoring. You can download Nagios XI from the link in the video description. Nagios XI has a Configuration Wizard that allows you to identify the IP/DNS of the device, specify the authentication for the device, and then you specify the OIDs you wish to monitor. For more detailed information, or to work with a technician in regards to this monitoring, please email [e-mail].

Mibs and oids... Finally

[@danchisholm1]

starts at 0:43

[@888katui]

How can we identify the OID and MIB of each devices such as Cisco WLC and UPS or SAN storage? Thanks in advance

[@nagiosvideo]

Hi Katui! Thanks for your question. Usually when I need a MIB or the manufacturer's document that tells me the OIDs I can monitor, I will do a simple internet search like in the video (3:07). I will generally search using manufacturer's name, the model number of the device, and then the term MIB. For example, when I google "Cisco 2960 MIB" I get the information I need to monitor that specific device. Give it a shot!

[@888katui]

@@nagiosvideo I stuck with no response from 10.2.91.xx:161 this case I try to monitor my Cisco WLC CPU. Thanks for advise

[@nagiosvideo]

Katui CSP - Hi Katui, thanks for the response. There can a number of reasons XI would not receive a response. The device might be down, the device might have an internal configuration error, or there might be a network issue.

Hi Mudiyala Rathna Kumar. Thanks for your question. So, did you install Net-SNMP on the server? If so, did you configure the CPU monitoring in the snmpd.conf file?

If possible give me ur personal mail id I will share the error screen shots It wi come 5 servers. So many times I tried but no body not support pls tell me how to resolve the issues
