Hello Community,
I am with a problem in data collection via SNMPv3. I run the command successfully snmpwalk -v3 -a MD5 DES -x a (8-digit password)-X (8-digit password) -u user xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in the Zenoss console, but when I run DEVICE MODEL, I have received the following messages: zen.SnmpClient: Can not connect to SNMP agent or timeout. I have also been successful when I run the query via the COMMANDS option. I think it's not a performance issue on my network because I can run without problem in the Zenoss console, so I think it's not a network problem. I'm working with Zenoss version 4.2.5.

My definition of command: snmpwalk - $ {device / zSnmpVer -a} $ {device / zSnmpAuthType -x} $ {device / zSnmpPrivType-A} $ {device / zSnmpAuthPassword -X} $ {device / zSnmpPrivPassword -u $ {device} / zSnmpSecurityName} $ {device / snmpwalkPrefix} $ {here / manageIp}: $ {here /} zSnmpPort system

Are you trying to make a command button to do a v3 snmpwalk or do you want to fix your modeling time

Can you verify all your zProp's are set for the device What zenup ver are you running currently

Zenoss snmpwalk v3 command per Zenoss Support:

snmpwalk -${device/zSnmpVer} -l authNoPriv -a ${device/zSnmpAuthType} -x ${device/zSnmpPrivType} -A ${device/zSnmpAuthPassword} -X ${device/zSnmpPrivPassword} -u ${device/zSnmpSecurityName} ${device/snmpwalkPrefix} ${here/manageIp}:${here/zSnmpPort} system

Excuse me, my command definition was copied incorrectly. With the exception of -l authNoPrivcommand that I have removed for testing purposes, my snmpwalk v3 follows the standard supported by Zenoss. What I want is to collect data from the network assets via SNMPv3. I will then'll check zenup.

There was an issue where Zenoss was missing an option for snmp v3, the context flag (-n). This was later added in 4.2.5 SP183

After running the update application and the system, then installed Cacti and used the same credentials SNMPv3 and that's when I find that when removing options DES and PrivPassword got success. So as long as I did with your network administrator and request that to revise the settings in network assets.

Conclusion: there is no bug in zenoss.

Thank you for your cooperation.
