  • 1.  SNMP OBJECT ID NETWORK DISCOVERY

    Posted Aug 07, 2015 10:03 AM

    Does anyone have a list of SNMP object IDs? Am a admin on a 2500 computer chunk of a huge Active Directory Enterprise environment. Running 7.5 SP 1 Network Discovery againt our range of IP addresses looking for anything connected to the network.

     

    Network Discovery does great job of finding everything,however it also has found 1100 "Unnown" devices whch I am sure are printers,switches,etc.

    Does anyone know of or have a comprehensive list of SNMP Object IDs that I can import in to SMP to hep identify the objects?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    SNMP object information is normally contained in MIB files.  So if you know you have Cisco routers and HP printers, you can download MIB files from those vendors and import them into ITMS.  Realize that this will only be useful for devices that support SNMP and are using default community stirings or you know what string they are using and configure it within the network discovery profiles.  Here is a good article which discusses setup of SNMP network discovery, hope it helps.
