Make SNMP queries

[lyric0n]

Hello,

I would like to use VBScript to query a network device with SNMP v1, then walk a particular OID, and then process the data returned. Can I walk an OID with VBScript like this? If so, is there an example?

Thanks,
Chris

This isn't the full solution: just the starting point

strTarget = "10.0.0.1" ' Address of your target device
set objLocator = CreateObject ("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
set objServices = objLocator.ConnectServer ("", "root\snmp\localhost")
set objSet = CreateObject ("WbemScripting.SWbemNamedValueSet")
objSet.Add "AgentAddress", strTarget
objSet.Add "AgentReadCommunityName", "public"

' The problem is figuring out what xxx is
set collection = objServices.InstancesOf ("xxx",,objSet)
for each obj in collection
   WScript.echo ...
next

Have a look at

I don't know if that is any help or not. It doesn't walk the mib though.
