How do I get Statseeker to monitor all the interface types I want? And how do I find the ifType?

Statseeker will monitor all interfaces with interface types (ifType) specified in the Interface Type section of the Administration Tool. To view/edit this information see

  • Administration Tool > Network Discovery - Advanced Options > Interface Types

If interfaces are not added during discovery, the most likely cause is that their ifType has not been specified in the Interface Type section. To rectify this:

  • Locate the ifType for the interface from the list of Available Types
  • Add the ifType to the Interface Type section of Administration Tool
  • Rerun the discovery process

To identify the ifType for the interface use the SNMP Walk:

  • Administration Tool > Expert Tools > SNMP Walk
  • Specify: the IP Address, Community String/Credentials, the SNMP version and set OID to ifType

The ifType will be the last word on each line.
