Collecting information from Cisco switchs using SNMP

Dear All,
I have a wide network with more than 250 sites connected using the DSL. the WAN devices are under the provider responsability and the LAN devices are directly in my responsability. In each site, I have :
1 or 2 Cisco switchs (2960 or 3560), connecting via fibr.
or
Linksys switch connected via ethernet cable
and
cisco 877 router connected to switch
cisco 881G router conected to switch
pc and printers
In order to improve the availibilty of our network, we lauch every day a script from local pc to test connectivity of LAN equipements :
ping to switchs (Vlan 1), ping to ip fa0/0 cisco router1, ip cisco router2, ping to HSRP address (of two router). the resulting ini file will be inserted in a database and exported to excel for analysing.
I'm asking if someone can help in order to implement SNMP and let me know the name of cisco MIB to implement to :
- to have from SNMP information, the result of show cdp nei, show interface status, show ip int brief,...
- to have if wan router LAN interface are up,connected
- others usefuls informations.
Thanks and regards,
AA

Hi,
the basic SNMP config for 2960 and 3560 is:
     snmp-server community <> RO
The configuration for SNMP traps to get alerts from the device if there is for example a failure with a fan is:
          snmp-server enable traps
          snmp-server host <> <>
This enables all traps available with your IOS version. You can the disable not wanted traps by using the "no"-command like this.
Example for dot1x traps:
          no snmp-server enable traps dot1x
With a snmp client you can then do a snmpwalk (or snmp get) without a specific OID to get all the SNMP information from the device:
On a Linux server the following command should work:
     snmpwalk -v 2c -c <> -T <>
-v = use SNMP version 2c
-c = use the community string you configured on the device
-T = output in the dotted decimal format
But be careful, this will be a lot of data output.
Here you will find a docu for configuring SNMP on a Cisco device:

Set IP address of L3 switch using SNMP

HI,
I am using cisco catalust 3560-x series swtiches. And I am new to SNMP. I want to assign IP address to interfaces of this switch, using SNMP. Kindly help me. Any help, any sugession, is most welcome.
Thanks in advance
Jeni A

hi,
Thanks for your response.
Our requirement is as follows.
I want to assign IP address to Switch fro my Java Application. I have implemented a Telnet Client Code in Java, by which i can configure IP address in switch from my java application.
But my boss said, Telnet is not secure and try using SNMP to do the same.
When I was searching in Internet, I got this page https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12090896/snmp-how-get-list-ip-addresses-and-corresponding-interface-names
The above thread gives object ID to GET IP address of Switch interface. This Object is Read-only.
In the similar way, is there any object, using which I can SET / assign IP address to switch interfaces.
waiting for your response.
Thanks in advance :)

Collect cdr from cisco gateway AS5300 into a database in realtime

Hello !!
somebody knows how can i collect cdr from cisco gateway AS5300 into a database in realtime?
Regards

You can use gw-accounting as explained below:
gw-accounting
To enable an accounting method for collecting call detail records (CDRs), use the gw-accounting command in global configuration mode. To disable an accounting method, use the no form of this command.
gw-accounting {aaa | file | syslog [stats] }
no gw-accounting {aaa | file | syslog [stats] }
gw-accounting {h323 [vsa] | syslog | voip}
no gw-accounting {h323 [vsa] | syslog | voip}
Syntax Description
aaa
Enables accounting through the AAA system and sends call detail records to the RADIUS server in the form of vendor-specific attributes (VSAs).
file
Enables the file accounting method to store call detail records in .csv format.
syslog
Enables the system logging facility to output accounting information in the form of a system log message.
stats
(Optional) Enables voice quality statistics to be sent to the system log.
h323
Enables standard H.323 accounting using Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) RADIUS attributes.
vsa
(Optional) Enables H.323 accounting using RADIUS VSAs.
voip
Enables generic gateway-specific accounting.
You can find more info in cisco IOS voice command reference guide.
This is an example to collect CDR of H.323 calls via RADIUS:
gw-accounting syslog
gw-accounting aaa
attribute acct-session-id overloaded
attribute h323-remote-id resolved
acct-template callhistory-detail

NPS Discarding RADIUS request from Cisco switch (802.1x)

Last few weeks I've been busy to get the following to work:
- Cisco 2960 switch as the suppliant
- Another Cisco 2960 as the authenticator switch
- The supplicant is only able to send MS-EAP MS-ChapV2 requests
- The NPS server is Windows 2008 R2 (and also tested on 2012 R2)
This is called "NEAT" by Cisco; which does seem to work with Cisco ISE (http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/lan-switching/8021x/116681-config-neat-cise-00.html)
but I'd like to get it to work with Windows NPS.
Within NPS I've setup the following Connection Request policy:
- NAS Port Type: Ethernet
I'm using the following Network Policy:
- User Group: DOMAIN\Switches (the useraccount used by the switch is part of this group)
- NAS Port Type: Ethernet
- Autehntcation Type: EAP
Now the request sent by the switch is discarded. The actual error is the following (excluded irrelevant information):
User:
Account Name: Rotterdam-Switch-8-1
Account Domain: DOMAIN
Authentication Details:
Connection Request Policy Name: Secure Wired Connections
Network Policy Name: Switches Allowed
Authentication Provider: Windows
Authentication Server: SERVER.DOMAIN.local
Authentication Type: EAP
EAP Type: -
Account Session Identifier: -
Reason Code: 1
Reason: An internal error occurred. Check the system event log for additional information.
Wireshark on the NPS server shows:
1. The RADIUS Access-Request (1) being received by the NPS Server
2. The NPS Server sending out a RADIUS Access-Challenge (11) to the authenticator switch
3. Another RADIUS Access-Request (1) is beging received by the NPS Server
Packet 2 has an t=EAP-Message(79) with type MS-EAP-Authentication [Palekar](26) and MS-CHAPv2-ID set to 2 and OpCode 1 (Challange)
Packet 3 has an t=EAP-Message(79) with type MS-EAP-Authentication [Palekar](26) and MS-CHAPv2-ID set to 2 and OpCode 2 (Response)
I've also tried the following:
- I've also tested with an invalid username/password. The request is correctly denied
- I've also tested by added ALL EAP Types as condition to the Network Policy. The request isn't pickup by this policy anymore.
Any help would be greatly appriciated ofcourse.
Kind regards,
Peter

It only took like.. uhm.. forever.. but there's an answer which is "OK ish..".
Cisco 2960 switches support EAP-MSCHAP; but it seems that NPS only supports EAP-MSCHAP for VPN Connections and not for Wired/Wirelss authentication. Something to do with inner and outer methods and NPS requireing PEAP as an outer method for Wired/Wirelss
authentication.
End result is that both the Cisco switches and NPS do support EAP-MD5. Though it's definitly not as secure (at all), it's definitly a step in the right direction and it's something that we'll be implementing.
Now it seems that NPS doesn't support EAP-MD5 (which is supposidly depricated), it's possible to re-enable it. Using the following articles.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922574/en-us
Microsft mentioned me that "Though this article says it applies to Windows Vista only, it does apply to Server 2008R2 as well. Also I would suggest you the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981190"
Please note that you'll have to enable 'Store password using reversible encryption’ on the accounts that will be used for NEAT authentication.
All though I would have hoped EAP-MSCHAPv2 would work, I feel I do need to clarify that I understand Microsoft's point of view on this as well. They feel EAP methods without PEAP are simply not safe; which is understandable, espcially for EAP-MD5 which
could be sniffer using a hub/repeater/etc.
Kind regards,
Peter

SAP Query - Additional field that collects information from table RESB

Hello gurus. I have a question.
I want to create a SAP Query that shows me the stock level of a list of materials, and also show me the total quantity of order reservations in an additional field.
I created an InfoSet with table MARD, which is the one that holds the Stock information in a plant. Then I created an additional field which would read information from table RESB, the table that holds order reservations per material.
So I wrote this piece of code:
SELECT * FROM RESB
WHERE MATNR EQ MARD-MATNR and
       WERKS EQ MARD-WERKS.
ENDSELECT.
if ( sy-dbcnt NE '0').
      MOVE RESB-BDMNG to ZQTY.
ELSE.
      MOVE '' to ZQTY.
ENDIF.
This works fine. However, this is currently just catching the first record in table RESB that matches my condition.
What I would like is to collect every instance of RESB-BDMNG and add them to field "ZQTY", have it loop in RESB until it finishes finding every record that match the MATNR and WERKS. With this I could get the total number of order reservations that this material has in that table.
Could someone share some coding that would help me achieve this?

Yes! That did it. That's what I needed to do. Thank you so much.
While I'm at it, let me ask you a related question.
When I execute the query, in the first records of the query where there's no value from RESB to transfer, the value of field ZQTY appears empty. Once it finds the first record in RESB and it populates ZQTY with a value, then the rest of the records with no hit get the proper value of 0.
Do you know why the first records in the query appear empty and not with a 0? Is there anything I should add to the coding to fix this?

Query with collective information from MD04 in detail

Hello gurus. I have a question about Infosets.
Iu2019ve being asked to create a query that shows the information from transaction MD04, but for multiple materials. It should be a list that essentially lists every MD04 record for material in our plant, one after the other.
I found a Function called MD_STOCK_REQUIREMENTS_LIST_API which contains this information. The problem is, this function exports the detailed data to a structure called MDEZ and the header data to a separate one called MDKP.
I created an Infoset using u201CData Retrieval by programu201D and I typed MDEZ as the structure. I then coded the retrieval of data under the u201CData Reading Programu201D tab.
The problem is, the MDEZ structure inside Function MD_STOCK_REQUIREMENTS_LIST_API doesnu2019t have the material number; this is exported to a separate one called E_MDKP.
My question is; how can I also have the contents of MDKP added to this Infoset? When I create it, it only lets me use one single structure, I cannot also add MDKP.
I tried creating an additional field just for the MATNR, but those extra fields cannot read what I coded under the u201CData Reading Programu201D tab. I tried to use a second internal table to drop the values of E_MDKP, and then loop it to fetch the MATNR, but I canu2019t add it to the additional field nor can I add it to a second structure.
I made a query and it shows the MDEZ data correctly; I get one line per item found in MD04 for the materials I imported from our Plant, but I donu2019t know which material is which because that info is in the other structure MDKP.

Thanks for your reply. if you don't mind me asking, how can I create my own structure to add it to the Infoset?
When I create the infoset, I can either make from a Table Join, a Logical Database or data Retrieval. In the Table Join I cannot use structures, and under Data Retrieval, I can only use one of them.
Is there a way to create a temporary (or permanent) structure that would contain MDEZ and the extra field MATNR that I need?
Please advise.

Collecting logs from Cisco Prime Infrastructure

Hi ,
I am currently working in integrating Cisco Prime Infrastruture with the siem tool Qradar.
Can any one help me out in below issues:
1)How and where is the log stored in Cisco Prime.?
2)Does the logs contains the logs of the devices that Cisco Prime manages?
3)Is there any way to sent out the logs from Cisco Prime to a third party device.?

Hi,
1)How and where is the log stored in Cisco Prime.?
/opt/CSCOlumnos/logs
2)Does the logs contains the logs of the devices that Cisco Prime manages?
AFAIK,
In the prime infrastructure Syslogs are directly read from udp port 514 and then filtered
, the non SEV1 and SEV2 syslogs will be dropped and will not be entered into db . The
syslog messages will not be saved into log files .
Till now PI support only SEV 0,1 and 2 syslog.
3)Is there any way to sent out the logs from Cisco Prime to a third party device.?
unfortunately , this feature is not there in PI so far.
Thanks-
Afroz

What version of IOS are you running?
Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) is BGP predecessor. I doubt that anybody is still running it.
The support for EGP has been removed from IOS, at the same time as IGRP, in the 12.2T train. Therefore support for EGP is not available in 12.3 and up.
If you're still using a old OS, we can find details on what exactly you want to manage in EGP.
If you mean BGP, you can configure the device for BGP traps and BGP related data, you can configure BGP traps or poll using CISCO-BGP4-MIB.

Try to find out, what characters really are in your string customer.
I assume you used System.out.print..(), when you got them as '?'.
Find out which unicodes they are!
Afterwards I see two possibilites:
Either
1) you see real unicodes for Chinese characters, and it was only the unability of System.out to print them others than as '?', then you can convert these characters however you want. Maybe your further processing can handle them directly as unicode.
or
2) you get really '?' in your string. Then Excel (or JDBC or ODBC or ???) hasn't been able to transmit these Chinese characters to your program others than converting them all into '?'. Then you are lost, because you can't know which Chinese character each '?' originally could have been.
Hope this helps.
Please tell us, which you experienced, 1) or 2).

Help needed extracting information from command output using sed

I want to be able to pipe the output of:
playerctl metadata
into sed and extract only the relevant information. I have a working knowledge of regular expressions but I'm not how to get sed to only output the matched text. For reference, this is an example output of the playerctl command:
{'mpris:artUrl': <'http://open.spotify.com/thumb/ddf652a13affe3346b8f65b3a92bd3abfdbf7eca'>, 'mpris:length': <uint64 290000000>, 'mpris:trackid': <'spotify:track:0xqi1uFFyefvTWy0AEQDJ7'>, 'xesam:album': <"Smokey's Haunt">, 'xesam:artist': <['Urthboy']>, 'xesam:autoRating': <0.23000000000000001>, 'xesam:contentCreated': <'2012-01-01T00:00:00'>, 'xesam:discNumber': <1>, 'xesam:title': <'On Your Shoulders'>, 'xesam:trackNumber': <6>, 'xesam:url': <'spotify:track:0xqi1uFFyefvTWy0AEQDJ7'>}%
I'm trying to get the track name and artist name and combine them into one string. Perhaps sed isn't the tool for the job but I'm not really sure what else to try. Any help is very appreciated.

If that was valid json, which it doesn't appear to be, you could use jshon to query it.
Are you sure that is the exact output of the command? It looks sort of off...
In the meatime, this is pretty hacky:
awk 'BEGIN { RS=","; FS="'\''" }; /artist/ { artist = $4 }; /title/ { title = $4 } END { print artist": "title }' file

Which creates the list with list items. The centre panel uses carlayout to contain different sub-panels with combination of radio buttons.
I want to create a hashtable of values, which corresponds to selected radio buttons, after pressing go button. In other words, suppose I select 1B, 2A, 3C, and press Go button, then the hashtable contains the values 1B,2A, and 3C will be created.
I am bit stuck. This is just a simple version of the problem that I have (the real version is too big, and bit complicated). Once I get the solution for this, then I could use this solution to my real problem. Your advices and ideas would be much appreciated. Thank you.

just added more lines and commented only the parts that are changed...the whole point of showing you this code is to see if it is possible to add the action listeners to all the radiobuttons like this. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you

Collect information from an exprenal SQL DB and collect it into a SCOM Databag so we can collect the data, report and report on it.

The DB is collecting counts. We want to collect the counts into a bag, then once in the bag be able to report the counts (need to collect on an hourly basis)

Hi TLC426,
you can use a timed powershell or vb script to connect to the db and run a sql command against it. The result must then be parsed and returned in the property bag.
As a starting point you should have a look at Pete Zerger's blog post
http://www.systemcentercentral.com/scom-query-sql-database-for-value-in-monitoring-script/ .
Just wrap around the creation of a property bag and replace the eventlog entry generation with returning the value.
Please keep in mind that you should always should return a property bag, even it is empty.

Boris
