Check Fortigate Status

Write a Review

Description:

This script is a modification of “Check Fortigate CPU load” (or check_fortigate_cpu.pl).

I have modified it to work with our models (200A and 80C).

Perhaps someone will find it useful.

It works for CPU and RAM usage, as well as active sessions.
Performance data is also produced.

Project Notes
For this script to work, SNMP needs to be enabled in your FortiGate config, both for the appropriate network interface and in the Config section. The community name should be "public". The "snmp" package should also be installed on the Linux side of things.

Great script I changed the OIDs in order to get it functional for my FG200B. cpu= .1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.101.4.1.3.0 mem= .1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.101.4.1.4.0 ses= .1.3.6.1.4.1.12356.101.4.1.8.0


Works great, but needed a fix

This script works perfectly for our fortigates. It did need a fix concerning the sessions-argument. If you comment out the following two lines you can use the -w and -c options with -m sessions, else it will keep using the default of 1500 (which I don't want to use) } elsif ($mode =~ "ses") { @sesArray = split(" ", $snmpCommand); $usage = @sesArray[-1]; # $warn = "1500"; # $crit = "2000"; $usagestring = "Active IP Sessions"; I'm no perl programmer so don't know exactly why this isn't working. Maybe the author can fix this :) Thanks for your script.
