You can get information by:
snmpwalk -v 3 -u public -l AuthNOPriv -A MD5 -A public123 adres_ip
SysUpTime
- v 3 --> use only 3 version
- u public --> community name
- A MD5 --> encrypted by MD5
- A public123 --> password
address_IP --> IP of iSCSI server
SysUpTime --> OID with system uptime information
To use SNMP from command line you have to know OID's, for example:
• ssCpu (processor load), mem (memory info), Location.
But it is not the best choice to retrieve info from command line. You have to
install SNMP client, so you can easily read any information you want.
From MS Windows you can use following Windows Clients: PRTG, MIB Browser
Professional, SNMP MIB Query Manager and INFTRAF.
If you can't retrieve information from SNMP client, you can check
iSCSI_ip/check_sys/index.html. There are SystemLoad, CPU, Memory,
Swap, Uptime.
Function: Remote access
Using this function, you can administrate console tools remotely by ssh protocol
(secure shell). Default user is 'cli' and you cannot change it, but password can be
change.
Allow IP: You can assign IP addresses (separated by a semicolon) that
are granted to iSCSI remote access. The field left blank means
no restriction.
Set port: Default port is 22222 for security reasons, because high ports
are invisible for port scanners. You can change it only from
range 1024-65535 except ports already used.
Password: Length of password is minimum 8 characters. Be sure to use
strong passwords.
Confirm pass.: Please retype your new password.
Password cannot contain:
• characters: ' " ` ^ & $ # [ ] \/ | *
• spaces.
To connect to iSCSI from Linux/MacOSX systems use:
ssh -2 -p 22222 -l cli address_ip
• option: -2 is a version of ssh protocol used for connection.
