Hey all,
I am new here, but I have been using LibreNMS since longer than I can recall. It probably started around 2016ish, and have brought quite a few colleagues onboard!
Anyways, I am here to seek some help with the Bird plugin. For some reasons, the plugin will not display anything, even though I have enabled it, or at least I believe it did it.
Here is what I did:
On my “router” (server), I extend the snmp configuration in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf with:
extend bird2 '/usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/birdc -r show protocols all'
I also edited the visudo, to allow the Snmp user to run the command with:
Debian-snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/birdc
In my bird.conf I updated the time as suggested and restart my snmp service (many times) and so I did about bird daemon:
timeformat base iso long;
timeformat log iso long;
timeformat protocol iso long;
timeformat route iso long;
As it did not work, I checked the SNMP Extend section, and did not get any further success.
I can confirm that the command /usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/birdc -r show protocols all ran by myself works perfectly fine as a non-root user.
In LibreNMS dashboard, I have an “Apps” tab in which I see the Bird2 application, but it’s just plain white and empty.
Finally, I have tried checking running the poller manually against that device, and I get this odd “bird2: has empty output” reply.
#### Load poller module applications ####
Application: bird2, app_id=1
bird2: has empty output
I would welcome any hint that can get me back on track!
Forgot to add the validate output:
librenms@nms:~$ ./validate.php
