SNMP and Xymon 🔗 link

Hi There,

Has anyone worked on receiving SNMP traps in Xymon? If yes, please provide appropriate reference material. I understand there is one article (http://cerebro.victoriacollege.edu/hobbit-trap.html ) that talks about integrating SNMP Traps with Hobbit. I am not sure if same approach or with some changes would work with Xymon. Appreciate any help/pointers.

Thanks in advance.

In addition to that, "devmon" is oft cited: http://devmon.sourceforge.net

I haven't tried it as yet; it would be overkill for a home network, where
the router and modem don't speak SNMP (at least to the user; they may to
the ISP for all I know).

I did script a printer supply level check, which uses snmpwalk to dig out
some potentially interesting info (paper and toner levels), but the OIDs
were proprietary and the printer maker doesn't give information except to
paying developers, so it took me a lot of googling and trial and error to
find what seems to work for that particular make and model.

Yes, that should work for Xymon.

Devmon does SNMP probes but doesn't do traps.

Hi Gopal,

Wrote a post long back
*http://netcool-matters.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/devmon-snmp-device-monitoring-with.html
<http://netcool-matters.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/devmon-snmp-device-monitoring-with.html>*
which
was about using Devmon for probing devices and updating xymon with status
updates.

But I think for handling traps devmon would not work. The link you shared
looks good to give a go.

Thanks,
Chandra
