[Nagiosplug-help] check_ifstatus - "unused" (exclude) problem -SNMP

[christian janssen]

Hi,

I tried to use "check_ifstatus" for general check of cisco interfaces. But
because of one "standby port" I have to exclude one interface.

It seems I've to use the "-u" unused parameter. But unfortunately I got no
success.

First I checked and got this alerting:
         ./check_ifstatus -H x.x.x.x -C public
         =>      E1 6/0: down

then I tried:
         ./check_ifstatus -H x.x.x.x -C public -I -u
ifMIB.ifMIBObjects.ifXTable.ifXEntry.ifName.26
         ./check_ifstatus -H x.x.x.x -C public -I -u E1 6/0
         ./check_ifstatus -H x.x.x.x -C public -I -u E1 6/0/0

any idea.

thanks
Christian
