SNMP Modular Input Poller: Why am I getting error "No Such Object currently exists at this OID" when running a search?

[arunprasadlv]

Hi ,

This is the first time I am using the Splunk app to poll and retrieve the events from a remote server.

I am seeing following error while doing a search on the index:

2015-09-30T22:30:22.207652 ifHCInOctets="No Such Object currently exists at this OID" ifHCInUcastPkts="No Such Object currently exists at this OID" ifHCOutOctets="No Such Object currently exists at this OID" ifHCOutUcastPkts="No Such Object currently exists at this OID"

I went through the steps given in this forum and configured inputs.conf under the local dir of splunkmod app

 destination = 172.23.204.211
 port = 162
 snmp_version = 2C
 interfaces = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
 communitystring = public
 snmpinterval = 30
 index = network
 sourcetype = snmpif
 disabled = 0

I am using custom mibs, so I followed the advice from the forum and converted them into python module using the below link, and placed them under /opt/splunk/etc/apps/snmpmod/bin/mibs

Please suggest how can i resolve this error.

Arun

This is because there is no SNMP interface on your router in the list you've given. Bear in mind that the SNMP interface number has nothing to do with the name of the interface. I'm not a Cisco guy but try

show interface snmp-ifindex
