An annoying device

Help
1

Hi,

I’m working on adding a device but had issues with a new firmware for it as librenms isn’t polling it.
When I do an snmpwalk on it it just pulls some 7 lines from the device, unlike older firmwares that did a full walk.

I did ask the maker of the device and their answer is:

By default snmpwalk requests elements from the MIB-2 (.1.3.6.1.2.1) subtree. And these are the results you are seeing.

To get all the available OID you must query the top level iso.org.dod.internet (.1.3.6.1) of the SNMP tree.
In your case the command line should look like this:

snmpwalk -v2c -c public 10.x.x.x .1.3.6.1

Does this make any sense to you? How would I adapt the discovery/polling to work with this?

It’s pretty annoying as I was getting satisfied with my results and was just about to start the submit process :slight_smile:

LibreNMS doesn’t walk the entire OID subtree so don’t worry about that.

If you’ve got something working and it’s doing what you want then submit it for review.

That’s the thing. The new firmware broke what I had and now I have my doubts :slight_smile:

It reports that snmp is unaccessible for the new firmware.

You’ll have to show some debug output from discovery and polling for us to help further
