Project Notes
It requests some data of a catalyst via SNMP to analyze them and notifies you via Nagios if the load is getting to high. This script should be called with -s [SWITCHIP], -C [COMMUNITYSTRING], -w [WARNLEVEL] and -c [CRITLEVEL]. For more information just run it with -h. Tested with different IOS versions and SNMP protocol version 2c. If you want to use a different SNMP protocol version, just modify the Net::SNMP->session(...) call. To learn how to enable SNMP in your catalyst’s IOS and more informations at https://binfalse.de

Working Good except by modifying "use lib" line.

The command is generating proper output. See below.
cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec/
./check_catalyst_load.pl -s 192.168.1.11 -C nishith007 -w 55,65,75 -c 76,85,85

OK: CPU1000: 2% 2% 2% ! CPU2000: 1% 2% 2% !
==========================
Also, you may need to modify the path where the said plugin has been deployed. In my case, the path is "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/" only.

So, change the path like,
use lib "/usr/local/nagios/libexec/";

Save the file & you're good to go.

Works perfectly in my environment; flexible thresholds.

Working on 4507R-E, 3750X stacks, 1721 and 2960G.

Got to set up the rest of my environment!
