This page is a work in progress ...

This page is still being developed.

Idea is to set up Nagios as an SNMP trap receiver, especially for HP Procurve switch alerts
Source: http://xavier.dusart.free.fr/joomla/index.php/en/nagios/47-traps-snmp-dans-nagios

Add packages:

nagios

nagios-web

lighttpd

net-snmp

perl

snmptt (available from edge/testing)

Create file /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf, and populate:

traphandle default /usr/sbin/snmptt

disableAuthorization yes

donotlogtraps  yes

Edit /etc/conf.d/snmptrapd:

OPTIONS="-On -Lsd -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid"

Start snmptrapd using init script.
Edit /etc/snmptt.ini and insert contents found at source link.

To be continued once my testing is complete :). With the config done as above, snmp traps will simply be logged to syslog since they're all unknown to snmptrapd.

Test edit http://www.google.com

-Install package mrtg from edge repo<br />
+Test edit
-{{Cmd|/usr/bin/cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /path/to/work/dir' --global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' --output /path/to/config/file/mrtg.cfg snmp-community@host}}

-Check that output folder is accessible via web server (ie /var/www/localhost or whatever you have configured)<br />
-To test: env LANG=c /usr/bin/mrtg /path/to/config/file/mrtg.cfg <br />
-Once working, add to crontab to run as often as desired (ie 5 min)<br />
