NAME
snmpps - display process table on a network entity via SNMP
SYNOPSIS
snmpps [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cp] [-Ca] [-C n | m | t ] AGENT
snmptop [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cp] [-Ca] [-C n | m | t ] AGENT
DESCRIPTION
snmpps is a networked version of a simple ps command. It checks the
processes on the remote machine by examining the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB's
hrSWRunTable and the hrSWRunPerfTable.
AGENT identifies a target SNMP agent, which is instrumented to monitor
the given objects. At its simplest, the AGENT specification will con-
sist of a hostname or an IPv4 address. In this situation, the command
will attempt communication with the agent, using UDP/IPv4 to port 161
of the given target host. See the snmpcmd(1) manual page for a full
list of the possible formats for AGENT.
snmptop emulates the top command using SNMP. While running, the key-
board inputs of 'c', 'n', 'm', 't' switches sorting between cpu, pid,
memory, or total runtime. Typing 'i' toggles hiding idle processes,
while 'o' toggles hiding Os processes. Typing 'a' toggles display of
hrSWRunParameters, 'p' toggles display of hrSWRunPath.
