Specific SNMP OID's

We have devices with a lot of interfaces (a lot of vpn tunnels) which is very hard to monitor when it is in active state. SNMPbulk responses are slow, very slow and increasing the periodicity or timeouts is not an option anymore

Am I able to restrict the snmp queries to a smaller set of interfaces, or is a full snmpbulkwalk the only method cmk uses ?

There are some SNMP Rules where you are able to configure a range.

yes but when I apply the rule to my host i don’t see any change

also if I run cmk -IIvv cmk will start a bulkwalk on everything, and that’s what I want to prevent, only focus on 10 entries starting from 5

Hi.

You can try to enable or disable sections for snmp walks. In this rule you can try to disabel all the collections you not need for your monitoring.

disabling if and if64 keeps performing a bulkwalk on the devices and requesting all interface data

I also wonder why the option “Only fetch specific OIDs” is actually an option …
