Does GS108PE support SNMP for the purposes of using a tool like Cacti to monitor ports?

Hi Everyone,

 

Does GS108PE support SNMP for the purposes of using a tool like Cacti to monitor ports?

I can manage the switch via it's web GUI but I can't find any way that I can monitor the switch in terms of ports utilization, bandwidth, etc thins which I normally would expect to be able to collect via SNMP


Thank you

Boyan

    Consulting the product data sheet and the documentation can give you the answer.

    It's simple "No".

    Cacti does allow much more than just SNMP, stuff like cgi, shell, whatever. MIght be difficult to gain an unattended access on these devices.

    These simple switches are essentially unmanaged cores which allow some basic config, and offer a very small amount of statstics only.
