Fully Integrated SNMP Monitoring

This page is dedicated to some FreeBSD SNMP development for BSNMP http://people.freebsd.org/~harti/bsnmp/, the native FreeBSD lightweight SNMP agent. For the time being we have the SNMP instrumentation for HOST-RESOURCES-MIB, TCP-MIB and UDP-MIB. For the latest details & patches please see the SnmpMonitoringModulesStatus page.

Short term topics list:

  • HostResources MIB. This might benefit from some additional stuff (used i-nodes for the files systems, …). We have a private MIB to put it in (/usr/share/snmp/mibs/{FREEBSD,BEGEMOT}-MIB.txt). HostResources MIB is: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2790.txt

The current code is located here (just for browsing): Perforce Depot for HR-MIB

  • IPv6 MIBs. We have an almost complete IPv4 MIB-2 (well, I (harti) did not track MIB additions during the last two years so may have missed something). Current IETF mibs:
MIB IETF URL Notes Implementation
TCP-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4022.txt unified v4 and v6 Perforce Depot for TCP-MIB and UDP-MIB
UDP-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4113.txt unified v4 and v6 Perforce Depot for TCP-MIB and UDP-MIB
IP-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4293.txt v4 & v6 None yet
IP-FORWARD-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4292.txt v4 & v6 None yet
TUNNEL-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4087.txt None None yet
IPV6-ICMP-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2466.txt v6 only N/A
IPV6-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2465.txt v6 only N/A
TCP6-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2452.txt v6 only - Obsolete N/A
UDP6-MIB http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2454.txt v6 only - Obsolete N/A
  • Row creation for the snmp_netgraph Node and Hook table (low priority).

Long term topics list:

  • SNMPv3 (this is tough)
  • snmp{get,set,walk,…)
  • remote configuration command line tool (I [harti] have ideas on this one).
