I have a couple Solectek Skyway bridges that I have added to my Dude map. However, I can’t seem to get any SNMP information, I mainly want to get link bandwidth stat’s. If I run an SNMP walk on my bridges they give me lots of returns with SNMP V2 but nothing with Version 1. This makes me think that Dude is only pulling SNMP V1 stats in the device on my map. What can I do to get SNMP V2 stats to work?

I don’t know what you mean above but… The dude will pull snmp 1 or 2. solectek only support v2.
I have a couple pairs of solectek skyway excel, they seem to report throughput on interface ixp0.
Have you specified the same snmp community string on both the dude and the skyway?
I do have snmp and my community strings configured on the solectek bridges. The problem is I can do a manual SNMP walk from the DUDE and get returns, but if I go to the SNMP tab in the device properties they are empty and if I setup a link between devices and choose snmp I don’t get any interface data to use. My other devices work fine.
So I assume that when you hover on the skyway device you do not see the uptime in the popup?
I agree it doesn’t make sense that snmpwalk works but can’t see any data in the snmp tab. I can tell you that mine do both.
The weird thing to me is it sounds like the SNMP profile you use to walk is not the same one as the one you selected for the device settings.
BUT then when you walk it you would need to go manually change which profile is being used by snmpwalk (since the snmp profile that is selected by snmpwalk is the one specified in device settings). Are you changing the SNMP profile before walking works?
Are you using skyway excels? Are your snmpv2 and snmpv1 strings different? (you might try making them different)
We’ll get to the bottom of it,

This is interesting. I just changed my default SNMP from V1 to Version2 and now the solectek’s works ok. Since none of my other devices seem to have issues when I switched the Version I think I’ll just leave it this way. BTW, which interface on the Solectec via SNMP is the link between the bridges?
Ok so I don’t use default snmp on any device, I manually specify the snmp profile to be certain I am using the right version and community string.
Although I have multiple strings so I can’t use default. It sounds like you are using default profile for most (every?) device?
“They seem to report throughput on interface ixp0.” but I haven’t messed with it since I setup the devices. I noticed there is now one interface labeled “wireless”. This seems to have appeared when I upgraded but I could be wrong.
Glad you got it working anyhow 
I did install their MIB but it doesn’t seem to compile into the dude mib database, oids I am interested in do not have text labels instead they just give the numbered OID. The only OID I was interested in was the singnal level. It looks like I relies on rfc 1213 MIB but that mib is already installed as well.
Here are some of the things you can monitor…
SolectekMimoMibSysName - the configured identity of the system
SolectekMimoMibSysIPAddr - the IP address of the system
SolectekMimoMibRadioSpectrumBW - channel bandwidth in MHz
SolectekMimoMibRadioFreq - center frequency of the channel
SolectekMimoMibModulationStreams - The transmission modulation and coding scheme
SolectekMimoMibFirmwareVer - the SkyWay firmware revision currently running on the system
SolectekMimoMibSubMACAddr - the MAC address of the peer unit
SolectekMimoMibSubDesc - the configured identity of the peer unit
SolectekMimoMibSubState - the running state of the peer unit
SolectekMimoMibSubSNR - the SNR value of the received signal on this unit, in dB
SolectekMimoMibSubSignalLevel - the received signal strength on this unit, in dBm
SolectekMimoMibSubRecvData - all frames received that are identified as Data frames
SolectekMimoMibSubTransData - all frames transmitted that are identified as Data frames
SolectekMimoMibSubRecvErrors - frames received incorrectly
SolectekMimoMibSubTransErrors - frames transmitted incorrectly
SolectekMimoMibSubCRCErrors - Cyclic Redundancy Checksum errors reported by the MAC/baseband processor
In order to monitor the wired Ethernet interface, the following objects in the parent rfc1213 MIB can be used.
Note that subnetwork 2 corresponds to the 10/100 Ethernet port there are other subnetwork interfaces:
ifAdminStatus.2 - the configured state of the wireline Ethernet interface: up or down
fOperStatus.2 - the link state of the wireline Ethernet interface: up or down
ifInOctets.2 - received octet count on the wireline Ethernet interface
ifInErrors.2 - received error count on the wireline Ethernet interface
ifOutOctets.2 - transmitted octet count on the wireline Ethernet interface
ifOutErrors.2 - transmitted error count on the wireline Ethernet interface
But I placed the mib file into the dude and none of the mib text values get populated so I don’t know how to fix this…
Here is a section that should be all text but everything after including 2890.x.x.x.x… doesn’t have text and should be populated by adding the mib to the dude.
I am just showing some of what should be populated with text oid descriptions. The first entry is the software version and should have iso.org.dod.x.x.x.SolectekMimoMibFirmwareVer as the text instead of iso.org.dod.x.x.x.2890.7.6.1.0.
