Hello,
since 23 days I get the SNMP error # 223 on some switchports on a Cisco Switch. SNMP works properly on about 150 switchports, but around 20 ports cant be monitored since the 29th of march. Before this date they also were scanned without any issues. Could you maybe help me with this issue? The ports are connected and everything is fine, only the monitoring is broken. Its just annoying in the error overview to have all these ports (also on some other switches) shown up.
greetings

Hey,
thx for replying! Tested it so far with one sensor and it seems to work fine. I will test it now on the other switchports and give feedback, if it works or not. :)
best regards

Hello,
please then check the "Interface number"-field for one old and new sensor (for the same interface) in the settings of the sensors. Does it have a different number in it?

hello again,
I checked the interfacenumbers and the re-added sensor has an other interface number then the sensor had before. Is this a problem? After re-adding the sensors work fine again.

It seems that the interface numbers did change. This could have been caused by a device reboot or configuration change on the device. You can set PRTG to try catch such changes in the future and adjust the sensors accordingly, so that they continue to work: Automatically update port name and number for SNMP Traffic sensors when the device changes them.
For the current already "broken" sensors, you can manually edit the interface number field (just use the new sensors and copy it from them), to get them working again.

Hello,
Thank you very much for your KB-Post. Can you please re-add the sensors for a test? Do the new ones then work for the same interfaces?
best regards.
