Hi William,

all you have to do is including your switches in the bb-hosts, with a 
line like this:

<ip> <host> # DEVMON

Then, run "devmon --readbbhosts", and the devmon process will start 
polling the switch.

HTH,

Harald

I saw that there is a template for cisco ASA so I'm hoping its for that
machine.

I'm new at this, and just trying to figure out what "switches" I have to put
into the bb-hosts files...

(still haven't figured out what area to change: bb-hosts or the client
config files)...

Is there a Cisco monitoring script that I could use?
Although you will hear many calls for devmon, devmon does not currently
support snmp v3.  If that is a requirement for you, then I would
recommend using mrtg with appropriate templates, and bbmrtg.pl to report
the values to xymon.  I use that technique to monitor 135 UPS, 94
temperature/humidity probes, 19 firewalls, and close to 300 Cisco
routers/switches.
