Issues with SNMP/WMI/SSH

Votes:

0

You can see my troubleshooting steps here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/438v7w/prtg_network_monitoring_problems/

Currently I'm getting this SSH error: The host's system is unable to process PRTG's command: "cat /proc/meminfo". (code: PE096)

But if I log in with the same credentials PRTG is and run the command it works.

SNMP error is: No response (check: firewalls, routing, snmp settings of device, IPs, SNMP version, community, passwords etc) (SNMP error # -2003)

And I've only got WMI working on the probe device (127.0.0.1).

Any ideas?

snmp ssh wmi

As for PE096 I'll talk to a developer and will update here as soon as I get feedback.

Regarding SNMP and WMI, those are pretty straight forward, most that can be done has been already said at reddit, I would only rephrase what's already outlined here about WMI and here about SNMP on Linux, respectively this for SNMP troubleshooting in general.

Kind regards.

Additional info regarding PE096: We will soon release version 16.1.24 shortly which will have reworked SSH sensors. I'd suggest to wait until then to see whether the new SSH implementation fixes this.

Thank you & kind regards.
