I got tired of not having an HSRP monitor to check the state of my routers so I went ahead and modified this wonderful VRRP monitor to do HSRP instead.
The only HSRP monitor I’ve found here had some issues and was limited in the way I could check for my router status.
Usage: ./check_snmp_hsrp.pl [-v] -H <host> -C <snmp_community> [-2] | (-l login -x passwd [-X pass -L <authp>,<privp>]) -s <master|backup|num,%> [-p <port>] [-t <timeout>] [-V]
Check if router is the master:
./check_snmp_hsrp.pl -H <hostname> -C <snmpcommunity> -s masterCheck if router is the backup:
./check_snmp_hsrp.pl -H <hostname> -C <snmpcommunity> -s backup
