check_iftraffic.php

Project Notes

1.04:
Minor bugfix version.

1.03:
The script has been made independent of check_multiaddr.pl, it can still be run through multiaddr, but will no longer require it to be present. It now also supports checking of hosts on DNS name.

1.02:
It has been modified to support nearly all devices and we have optimized the way it finds the interfaces. This way it can cope with gaps between IDs.

1.01:
The only difference is that it was written in PHP and was optimized for Fortinet devices. It leaves out the Absolute in and out traffic since these are reset each time a Fortinet reboots.

Run the script without parameters to get an overview of the paramters.

e.g: php check_iftraffic.php
USAGE:
check_iftraffic.php -H [IP or Hostname] -C [Community] -i [IF name]
-I [InBandwidth] -O [OutBandwidth] -w [Warning]
-c [Critical] -u [Units to Convert to]
--totals [units]
--from-units [Units received from SNMP]
--counters [32/64]

e.g.:
/opt/nagios/libexec/check_iftraffic.php -H 127.0.0.1 -C Nagios -i eth0 -I 100 -O 100 -w 85 -c 95 -u kb --totals GB --from-units B --counters 64

This is how the script is to be called.
