    Description

      Palo Alto networks uses private mibs to expose SNMP data so the OSPF mib it is trying to use is incorrect. I see that there are other mibs listed in the paloalto directory but do not see them listed under the devices settings.

          [OBS-1633] PAN devices are only using PAN-COMMON not all PAN provided mibs

          Adam - still the same situation with the latest 7.0.3 PANOS release and the latest MIB's. Negligible useful info coming out of them. Even less from VM appliances.

          Kyle - we run Panorama too, and a snmpwalk shows that Panorama doesn't appear to provide any additional information about managed devices, at least not via SNMP. All the "enterprise" MIB's appear to expose are capabilities/attributes/etc specific to hardware appliances. VM's are not returning anything beyond the basic info from PAN-COMMON-MIB.

          Yes. I spent quite a lot of time trying to support extra stuff on PanOS, but they don't make it easy at all. Last I checked they were missing the ability to collect even basic things, like memory usage.

          Ahh. No. That would probably be even more complex for even less gain.

          Panorama is like PANs controller you can link all of your PAN devices in to it and view state information / configurations / other device information sort of like rancid

          I don't know what Panorama is.
