-
-Using this collector, netdata can collect data from any SNMP device.
-
-This collector supports:
-
-- any number of SNMP devices
-- each SNMP device can be used to collect data for any number of charts
-- each chart may have any number of dimensions
-- each SNMP device may have a different update frequency
-- each SNMP device will accept one or more batches to report values (you can set `max_request_size` per SNMP server, to control the size of batches).
-
-The source code of the plugin is [here](https://github.com/firehol/netdata/blob/master/node.d/snmp.node.js).
-
-## Configuration
-
-You will need to create the file `/etc/netdata/node.d/snmp.conf` with data like the following.
-
-In this example:
-
- - the SNMP device is `10.11.12.8`.
- - the SNMP community is `public`.
- - we will update the values every 10 seconds (`update_every: 10` under the server `10.11.12.8`).
- - we define 2 charts `snmp_switch.bandwidth_port1` and `snmp_switch.bandwidth_port2`, each having 2 dimensions: `in` and `out`.
-
-```js
-{
- "enable_autodetect": false,
- "update_every": 5,
- "max_request_size": 100,
- "servers": [
- {
- "hostname": "10.11.12.8",
- "community": "public",
- "update_every": 10,
- "max_request_size": 50,
- "options": { "timeout": 10000 },
- "charts": {
- "snmp_switch.bandwidth_port1": {
- "title": "Switch Bandwidth for port 1",
- "units": "kilobits/s",
- "type": "area",
- "priority": 1,
- "family": "ports",
- "dimensions": {
- "in": {
- "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1",
- "algorithm": "incremental",
- "multiplier": 8,
- "divisor": 1024
- },
- "out": {
- "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1",
- "algorithm": "incremental",
- "multiplier": -8,
- "divisor": 1024
- }
- }
- },
- "snmp_switch.bandwidth_port2": {
- "title": "Switch Bandwidth for port 2",
- "units": "kilobits/s",
- "type": "area",
- "priority": 1,
- "family": "ports",
- "dimensions": {
- "in": {
- "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.2",
- "algorithm": "incremental",
- "multiplier": 8,
- "divisor": 1024
- },
- "out": {
- "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.2",
- "algorithm": "incremental",
- "multiplier": -8,
- "divisor": 1024
- }
- }
- }
- }
- }
- ]
-}
-```
-
-`update_every` is the update frequency for each server, in seconds.
-
-`max_request_size` limits the maximum number of OIDs that will be requested in a single call. The default is 50. Lower this number of you get `TooBig` errors in netdata error.log.
-
-`family` sets the name of the submenu of the dashboard each chart will appear under.
-
-If you need to define many charts using incremental OIDs, you can use something like this:
-
-This is like the previous, but the option `multiply_range` given, will multiply the current chart from `1` to `24` inclusive, producing 24 charts in total for the 24 ports of the switch `10.11.12.8`.
-
-Each of the 24 new charts will have its id (1-24) appended at:
-
-1. its chart unique id, i.e. `snmp_switch.bandwidth_port1` to `snmp_switch.bandwidth_port24`
-2. its `title`, i.e. `Switch Bandwidth for port 1` to `Switch Bandwidth for port 24`
-3. its `oid` (for all dimensions), i.e. dimension `in` will be `1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1` to `1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.24`
-3. its priority (which will be incremented for each chart so that the charts will appear on the dashboard in this order)
-
-```js

- "divisor": 1024
- }
- }
- }
- }
- }
- ]
-}
-```
-
-The `options` given for each server, are:
-
- - `timeout`, the time to wait for the SNMP device to respond. The default is 5000 ms.
- - `version`, the SNMP version to use. `0` is Version 1, `1` is Version 2c. The default is Version 1 (`0`).
- - `transport`, the default is `udp4`.
- - `port`, the port of the SNMP device to connect to. The default is `161`.
- - `retries`, the number of attempts to make to fetch the data. The default is `1`.
-
-## Retreiving names from snmp
-
-You can append a value retrieved from SNMP to the title, by adding `titleoid` to the chart.
-
-You can set a dimension name to a value retrieved from SNMP, by adding `oidname` to the dimension.
-
-Both of the above will participate in `multiply_range`.
-
-
-## Testing the configuration
-
-To test it, you can run:
-
-```sh
-/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/node.d.plugin 1 snmp
-```
-
-The above will run it on your console and you will be able to see what netdata sees, but also errors. You can get a very detailed output by appending `debug` to the command line.
-
-If it works, restart netdata to activate the snmp collector and refresh the dashboard (if your SNMP device responds with a delay, you may need to refresh the dashboard in a few seconds).
-
-## Data collection speed
-
-Keep in mind that many SNMP switches are routers are very slow. They may not be able to report values per second. If you run `node.d.plugin` in `debug` mode, it will report the time it took for the SNMP device to respond. My switch, for example, needs 7-8 seconds to respond for the traffic on 24 ports (48 OIDs, in/out).
-
-Also, if you use many SNMP clients on the same SNMP device at the same time, values may be skipped. This is a problem of the SNMP device, not this collector.
-
-## Finding OIDs
-
-Use `snmpwalk`, like this:
-
-```sh
-snmpwalk -t 20 -v 1 -O fn -c public 10.11.12.8
-```
-
-- `-t 20` is the timeout in seconds
-- `-v 1` is the SNMP version
-- `-O fn` will display full OIDs in numeric format (you may want to run it also without this option to see human readable output of OIDs)
-- `-c public` is the SNMP community
-- `10.11.12.8` is the SNMP device
-
-Keep in mind that `snmpwalk` outputs the OIDs with a dot in front them. You should remove this dot when adding OIDs to the configuration file of this collector.
-
-## Example: Linksys SRW2024P
-
-This is what I use for my Linksys SRW2024P. It creates:
-
-1. A chart for power consumption (it is a PoE switch)
-2. Two charts for packets received (total packets received and packets received with errors)
-3. One chart for packets output
-4. 24 charts, one for each port of the switch. It also appends the port names, as defined at the switch, to the chart titles.
-
-This switch also reports various other metrics, like snmp, packets per port, etc. Unfortunately it does not report CPU utilization or backplane utilization.
-
-This switch has a very slow SNMP processors. To respond, it needs about 8 seconds, so I have set the refresh frequency (`update_every`) to 15 seconds.
