I have been using LibreNSM for 4 years or so. It is awesome in every way!
I was curious if additional fields can be added to LibreNMS Ports? Is there an easy way to do this?
Example:
I would like to add 3 fields to the ports section…
- Patch Panel
- Panel Port
- Feet/Distance
This would be very helpful for my OSP guys.
Or perhaps, a new module all together for ‘Circuits’?
It seems like you want NetBox.
As an ISP… I think it would be helpful for outages…
When Libre sends the alert message to OSP that circuit is down, those fields could be added to the alert message. This way the OSP guy on call can investigate.
This is why I wanted the data in Libre… This allows them to get out to the site and pull otdr and track it from there… if they knew the 3 things above. That is why I wanted it in Libre.
We use Netbox now. Sadly, we started about a year a go and I have not gotten all data in there. I have seen talk on here for years about some netbox/libre integration. Is it ever coming?
Would be nice if libre could pull netbox data to have one place to look when there is an outage.
Not sure if helpful but there is a plugin that links LibreNMS and Netbox together
GitHub - bonzo81/netbox-librenms-plugin: Netbox plugin to sync data between LibreNMS and Netbox
It pulls data from LibreNMS into Netbox

If you have already the circuit name in the port description, then you can easily use that to build a link to the circuit page in Netbox, and add to the email alert you send to your OPS team. That the easiest way to integrate it without any change in both LibreNMS and Netbox.
You can also look at the plugin (or create your own) if you want a deeper integration.
