SNMP Polling
You can configure MetricsHub to periodically poll any system or device through SNMP v1, v2 and v3, retrieve the value of a given OID (object identifier) or an entire SNMP table, and push OpenTelemetry metrics with the extracted values.
In the example below, we configured MetricsHub to:
- monitor the
power-cooling-prodresource using SNMP - track power-related metrics
- retrieve values of a given OID
- extract and expose the
cooling.powermetric.
Procedure
To achieve this use case, we:
- Declare the resource to be monitored (
power-cooling-prod) and its attributes (host.name,host.type)
resources:
power-cooling-prod:
attributes:
host.name: power-cooling-prod
host.type: other
- Configure the
SNMPprotocol
protocols:
snmp:
version: v2c
community: public
timeout: 120s
port: 161
- Define a monitor job (
power_cooling) to track power-related metrics
monitors:
power_cooling:
simple:
- Set up an SNMP source (
PowerCooling) to retrieve the power consumed by the cooling system
sources:
PowerCooling:
type: snmpGet
oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.4555.10.20.30.1.80031.5.1
- Extract and expose the metric (
cooling.power) from the SNMP response.
mapping:
source: ${source::PowerCooling}
attributes:
id: power-cooling-prod
metrics:
cooling.power: $1
Here is the complete YAML configuration:
resources:
power-cooling-prod:
attributes:
host.name: power-cooling-prod
host.type: other
protocols:
snmp:
version: v2c
community: public
timeout: 120s
port: 161
monitors:
power_cooling:
simple:
sources:
PowerCooling:
type: snmpGet
oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.4555.10.20.30.1.80031.5.1
mapping:
source: ${source::PowerCooling}
attributes:
id: power-cooling-prod
metrics:
cooling.power: $1
