Unable to add standby Cisco ASA
by Erik INGEBERG 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hi, I'm trying to add the standby Cisco ASA firewalls we have in our active/standby failover pairs. I am able to add our ASA-SM (ASA service modules), but not the "normal" ASA's or PIX firewalls. Unfortunately, a Cisco ASA failover pair shares the same "sysName" and "snmpEngineID". This is not configurable on the ASA firewalls. When I try to add a standby ASA (with a different hostname / IP address) I get the following error: Already got device with SNMP-read sysName (xxxxxxxxxxx) and 'snmpEngineID' = xxxxxxxxxxx (xxxxxxxxxxx). I see that this is because of a check in "functions.php". Is there any workaround you can think of to allow us to add the standby devices? It is essential for us to monitor them, and we were also hoping to use Observium as our hardware inventory database (which is now missing all standby ASA's). Regards, Erik

Hey guys, Could you assist as to how we can set up alerts. I pretty much want the system to send an email when a device goes down. How would I go about setting this up? Thanks, Marco

Does observium do a full snmp walk each time the poller for stats run?

Does observium do a full snmp walk each time the poller for stats run? We are seeing a high load/ports failing on our OOB cisco routers/switches (which are not high-end devices), when we have observium monitoring it. Thanks!

Excuse my ignorance, but what is the alerter.php file for? Should I have this in crontab now? I must have missed something during an SVN update. ~JV Johnathon Voegeli jvoegeli(a)voigtie.com

Hi, I'm hoping someone could kind and provide a little assistance. I'm wondering how would I go about changing the server name in the email alerts. Right now its localhost in the hyperlinks. I looked in the documentation and tried googled but couldn't find anything. Thanks, Chip
