SNMP to check traffic over a OpenBSD firewall ?

Post by Roberto Congi » Tue, 20 Feb 2001 05:24:08



Hi!
I run OpenBSD on my home firewall/router, I'd like to know if there is any
way I can check the traffic going through my firewall with an SNMP tool.
How to configure OpenBSD so its traffic can be monitored using SNMP.

Any help/link/advice appreciated!

See ucd-snmp in the ports tree.
Be careful snmp auth are not protected.

1. checking firewall traffic....?

I've seen this done, but can't remember how to do it.... basicaly I want to
be able to monitor the incoming packets into my firewall and whats happening
to them. I have tried a few other utils, but they aren't quite what I want.

I guess what I am after is a way to pull traffic data out of the syslog into
another "iptraf" log and then tail that. Would I be right in assuming thats
the correct thing to do?

If not, can you please provide other options.... if so... um... I'm gonna
need help with the syntax in the syslog to create the "iptraf" log file.
