Brocade SNMPv3 Virtual Fabric (Context of snmpv3 -n)

2 votes

Brocade storage switches using Virtual Fabrics cannot be queried through SNMPv3 because the option -n, which defines the context of the query, cannot be defined in CheckMK.

The default fabric, 128 is scanned and this is working.

switch# snmpwalk -v3 -a MD5 -A passpass -x AES128 -u admin1 -X passpass -n VF:4
10.20.8.17 1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.2.1.5.1 -l authPriv

Please provide an option to configure -n in snmpv3 queries (keeping in mind, for brocade, up to 128 VF can be configured)
