We don't use public/private in our setup and it works fine, try adding the SNMP again with something other than public and private and test it again. I agree that for security reasons, public/private are not intelligent choices.

With the Netserver...yes, that is because we have the ability to scrutinize other Cards (even manufacturers) built into our software, but in the first release, we chose to limit it to HiperArc with HiperDSP cards only. I just pulled a box that has both Quad cards & DSPs and it shows up just fine. We just don't have a box with quad only cards. I wonder while traversing the OID tree of usernames on the Arc, if the Quad with DSPs in the same box works but with Quads alone we might need another starting point. Let's see what the list has to say, I'll post the question. If you would like to email me privately and give me the strings & IPs of your quad/HiperArc box, we can see what the exact error is and attempt to get rid of the bug.

Are you sure that you've got a community string in the arc? Try the following command while logged into the Arc: add snmp community public access RO That should add a community string of public to the Arc and see if it works correctly then.

RE: (usr-tc) MRTG questions

If anyone should happen to write a script that gathers the number of calls on a per slot basis, I would be interested in it as well. I also have 2 hunt groups on one chassis and have always wanted to make this work.

While I'm not extremely familiar with MRTG's capabilities...if you're dealing with (say, for example) 4 DSP's in a chassis, and 2 of the DSPs are one hunt group and the other 2 are the other hunt group, it gets a bit more hairy. Obviously its not *terribly* difficult, but it is going to require some scripting to split apart which is which and adding up. The usrSlotUtilizationTable gives you number of calls active on a per-slot basis, which removes the adding up part at least, and also gives you a nice index value that corresponds with the slot number. Again...not that it would be terribly hard to come up with in a script, but with these OIDs, its possible that there would be no script needed at all. Incidentally, this table also gives you total number of calls possible on a per-slot basis (so, if its a quad, it gives you a 4, if its a DSP running PRI, it gives you a 23, etc.), and nicely calculates a percentage utilization which is kinda cool (though easily figured out with the other two numbers :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm(a)iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) MRTG questions

Hi all, I've got MRTG monitoring calls per HiperARC, but I've got one chassis running two dialups in two different cities (don't ask how). Is there a way to break out the stats into a per DSP basis? __________________________________ Justin Ellison System Administrator InternetUSA sysadmin(a)nebi.com http://nebi.com 800-603-3502 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) Total Scrutinizer
by Brian Becker 17 May '00

17 May '00

My Internet Service company (semo.net) has been using 3com TC's since early 96. Back in October of 99, we decided that we needed to design software that would allow our Tech Support department view any user that was logged in to any of our 15 POPs and see their connection information (signal to noise, recv & trans, blocks resent, etc). Well, we now have that software done and have taken it thru the beta testing stage and have it available for sale. The software is called Total Scrutinizer and can be found at http://www.TotallyFabricated.com The software runs on Windows OS and works with 3Com Total Control Boxes. You can download a demo of the software which is crippled by limiting your ability to scrutinize 50% of the connected users. But we've tried to price it so that you can put it on every Techs system ($99 for one license and $299 for 5 licenses).
