<![CDATA[Huawei Router Configuration Polls Fails]]>I have added Hauwei router in NetXMS. Status poll works fine but configuration poll fails due to SNMP error. SNMP is working fine on the router because I have added same router  in another NMS and it is polling fine.

Help will be highly appreciated.

Thank You Filipp.

Does it use standard SNMP port?
You can try capturing communication of that software to the router with Wireshark and compare what network packets it's actually sending.

also you can try getting some data via SNMP using snmpget package from netsnmp software https://sourceforge.net/projects/net-snmp/files/net-snmp binaries/5.5-binaries/net-snmp-5.5.0-2.x64.exe/download

It's a protocol used in industrial devices. Your router is answering with RST - it says that this port is closed. This is normal.
The part related to SNMP is above. You can see that NetXMS is sending SNMP request that have three OIDs in it - 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 and so on. The is no reply, so the request is being repeated multiple time.

It could be that the router does not like that three OIDs are requested simultaneously. You can try turning on server configuration parameter SNMP.Discovery.SeparateProbeRequests, then only one OID will be requested at a time.

Please find the attached communication snap between the router and the NetXMS server.

Thanks,

I am using a Windows machine for NetXMS.

[15.01.2021 12:10:10]    Checking SNMP...
[15.01.2021 12:10:24]    No response from SNMP agent

For some reasons netxms is not able to receive response from that router. There are two options:

  • problems with network/firewall/etc so that packets are not getting to where they should
  • this router does not understand the way how netxms created SNMP request and does not reply.

I would suggest capturing communication between netxms and this router using tcpdump or Wireshark. If you need help in doing that, please inform, if your netxms is running on linux or windows.

Polling all the information very fine.
I have checked the SNMP version and community string everything is fine.

Check SNMP version in node properties and community string. Try doing Full configuration poll. If there were problems communicating with node via SNMP when the node was added, netxms will not set isSNMP flag and will not try communicating via SNMP. This flag can be visible in Object Details on the right-hand-side under Capabilities.
