Monitoring Switches

[nexusguy59]

Hello Guys,

I am pretty familiar with Nagios Core 4, Not very familiar with NCONF all though I have used it in the past and have a a little bit of experience. I would like to know if there is a guide/tutorial for adding SNMP Check to NCONF and configuring it to work with NEMS?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Michael, and welcome to NEMS Linux!

SNMP is something that is fully supported, but not yet documented. I might suggest you jump on the NEMS Linux Discord Server and ask the community there, since I happen to know I've seen folks there talking about SNMP who know what they're doing.

Of course, the docs evolve and grow, and one day this will be a fully-documented feature, but unless I receive a contribution from the community for the docs, it means writing them myself... which is a bit down on my priority list until after NEMS Linux 1.6 releases. So while I apologize for not having the appropriate help in place for you, know that SNMP is fully supported, and I'll do my best to document it as soon as I can.

Cheers!

Hello Robbie,

Let me figure this out and I will do some documentation for you. Not a problem, I love to help where I can. I do a lot of testing installing and destorying to learn.

I have a pretty nice setup here, small datacenter of sorts.

I'll let ya know when I am ready to give up some documentation on SNMP Monitoring.

Thanks for all you do, I am really enjoying this.

Thanks so much! Yes, that'd be amazing to have some user contributions for SNMP docs, and would be a big help.

I also welcome (and covet) pictures of cool setups Hint, hint!

Have fun!

Cheers,
Robbie
