Nagios monitoring of PFsense interfaces

marion.miller

@stephenw1You are correct, it should be LAN. it fails with that also. the command is check_ifstatus. I want to know when an interface goes down.

stephenw10

Ah, it;'s because:

[2.6.0-RELEASE][admin@cedev-6.stevew.lan]/usr/local/libexec/nagios: ./check_ifstatus 
Can't locate Net/SNMP.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Net::SNMP module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/libexec/nagios /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.32 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.32/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.32) at ./check_ifstatus line 41.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./check_ifstatus line 41.

Looking.....

@stephenw10 INstalled Net-SNMP and enabled in on pfsense and get the same error.

stephenw10

Yeah, you need that package to get the SNMP perl module. But it appears to be in the correct location. Or at least a location that is referenced by the INC file. It should find it....

stephenw10

No, it is looking in the wrong place.

Try:

ln /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.32/SNMP.pm /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.32/Net/SNMP.pm

Then retest.

Getting closer. It recognizes it but now gives these errors

stephenw10

That's after adding the symlink?

marion.miller

@stephenw10
Yes

stephenw10

Mmm, OK I replicated that. That clearly that is loaded though. Something in the perl config maybe. Someone more familiar with perl will need to look at it.
