Check Point Profressional Services

1) Create a script/command that monitors something on your system and output the result to stdout.
example
script: /usr/local/bin/check_everything.sh
outputs either...
STATUS: OK - everything good
or
STATUS: NOT OK!

2) Create entry in the SNMP config to the monitor script:

# vi /etc/snmp/userDefinedSettings.conf

add a line...

extend everything_status /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/check_everything.sh

3) restart snmpd

from clish, run "set snmp agent off" then run "set snmp agent on"

4) test it

with a walk
