Issue
The Authentication Manager software installed on SUSE installs an SNMP GET tool called SNMPGET. This tools allows for doing an SNMP GET as follows. You must set the values of the following to your environment.
| Value | Definition |
|---|
| -u | Security name |
| -l (L as in Lima) | Security level |
| -A | Authentication password |
| -a | Authentication protocol |
| -X | Privacy password |
| -x | privcy protocol |
For example, for replication status:
snmpget -v3 -u snmpuser -a MD5 -A support1! -x DES -X support1! -l authPriv localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.2197.20.21.1.5
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2197.20.21.1.5 = No Such Instance currently exists at this OID
Resolution
Add a trailing zero to the OID. Compare this string here (with the trailing zero in bold) to the string shown in the Issue section.
For example, for replication status
snmpget -v3 -u snmpuser -a MD5 -A support1! -x DES -X support1! -l authPriv localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.2197.20.21.1.5.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2197.20.21.1.5.0 = STRING: "HEALTHY"
Notes
Note that the SNMPGET command is a by-product of the SUSE operating system utilized for RSA Authentication Manager running on both virtual and physical servers.
This tool is not supported by RSA in any way. This KB is provided as a courtesy and no support is implied.
