Monitor using SNMP

You must be logged on to the GV GUARDIAN system with administrator privileges.
The IP address of the device you intend to monitor must be known.

The SNMP Walk Wizard provides the ability to configure active SNMP scans to poll devices at predetermined intervals.

This task uses a Grass Valley 4ME Kayenne Panel as the example of the device monitored. Apply your knowledge of SNMP to monitor a different device, using these steps as a guideline.

Click Configure | Run the Monitoring Wizard.
Select SNMP Walk.
Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Next. The Step 2 page opens.
For Device Address, enter the IP address of the device to be monitored.
For OID, enter 1.3.6.1.4.1.4947. This is the main OID for Grass Valley products.
For Timeout, enter 1500.
For Max Results, enter 1000.
For Force Scan, select Yes.
Click Next. GV GUARDIAN scans the device. The Step 3 page opens and displays a list of OIDs.
In the right-most MIB To Use column, find the rows for GVG-VSM-MIB.
In the left-most column, select the OIDs for the GVG-VSM-MIB rows.
Click Next and Finish.
Observe the progress of configuration and verification processes and verify that Configuration applied successfully is reported.
Navigate to Home | Details | Host Detail. The Host Status page opens and displays a list of monitored hosts.
On the row for the device you added with the SNMP Walk Wizard, click View service status details for this host.
The Service Status page opens.
Identify the Services that report SNMP OK - No Such Instance currently exists at this OID in the Status Information column.
This indicates that this OID is not needed to monitor the device, as what it is configured to monitor does not exist.
For the OIDs not needed, delete the service. Refer to related topics in this Topic Library.
