SNMP

Does Vera support LuaSNMP (requires Net-SNMP library version 5.2.1 or later)?

#2

SNMP seems to reach a dead end in all the forums … Can I take it that there is no SNMP functionality in Vera?

I’m keen to use Cacti to mnitor and record logs as it does with all the computers/network gear I have and this would appear to be the simplest/standardised approach (presumably OpenWRT has an SNMP codebase that could be used?)

This post is written in the context of Vera 2 running UI5.

SNMP is supported under OpenWRT.

Monitor with your favorite tool like PRTG. Auto discover does a nice job.

I like to have a lower warning limit set on uptime of 24 hours (86400 seconds) as shows a warning in PRTG when the Vera uptime is less than 24 hours.

Hi,

I have followed the installation guide. Small amount of data is provided by Vera.
Any chances for sharing the config “snmpd.conf” from other implementation?
