Code Owners @StefanKurek, @tamir-michaeli

This receiver fetches stats from a SNMP enabled host using a golang snmp client. Metrics are collected based upon different configurations in the config file.

Purpose

The purpose of this receiver is to allow users to generically monitor metrics using SNMP.

If one of the specified SNMP data values cannot be loaded on startup, a warning will be printed, but the application will not fail fast.

Prerequisites

This receiver supports SNMP versions:

  • v1
  • v2c
  • v3

Configuration

Connection Configuration

These configuration options are for connecting to a SNMP host.

  • collection_interval: (default = 10s): This receiver collects metrics on an interval. This value must be a string readable by Golang's time.ParseDuration. Valid time units are ns, us (or µs), ms, s, m, h.
  • timeout: (default: 5s): Timeout for each SNMP request. This value must be a string readable by Golang's time.ParseDuration. Valid time units are ns, us (or µs), ms, s, m, h.
  • endpoint (default: udp://localhost:161): SNMP endpoint to connect to in the form of [udp|tcp][://]{host}[:{port}]
    • If no scheme is supplied, a default of udp is assumed
    • If no port is supplied, a default of 161 is assumed
  • version: (default = v2c): SNMP version options are
    • v1: SNMP version 1
    • v2c: SNMP version 2c
    • v3: SNMP version 3
  • community: (default = public): The community string for the SNMP connection. This is not available for SNMP version v3.
  • user: The user for the SNMP connection. This is only available for SNMP version v3.
  • security_level: (default = no_auth_no_priv): The security requirements of the SNMP connection. This is only available for SNMP version v3. SNMP security_level options are
    • no_auth_no_priv: No authentication protocol and no privacy protocol used
    • auth_no_priv: Authentication protocol is used but no privacy protocol used
    • auth_priv: Both authentication and privacy protocols are used
  • auth_type: (default = MD5): The authentication protocol used for the SNMP connection. This is only available if security_level is not set to no_auth_no_priv. SNMP auth_type options are
    • MD5
    • SHA
    • SHA224
    • SHA256
    • SHA384
    • SHA512
  • auth_password: The authentication password used for the SNMP connection. This is only available if security_level is not set to no_auth_no_priv.
  • privacy_type: (default = DES): The privacy protocol used for the SNMP connection. This is only available if security_level is set to auth_priv. SNMP privacy_type options are
    • DES
    • AES
    • AES192
    • AES256
    • AES192c
    • AES256c
  • privacy_password: The privacy password used for the SNMP connection. This is only available if security_level is set to auth_priv.
Metric/Attribute Configuration

These configuration options are for determining what metrics and attributes will be created with what SNMP data

  • resource_attributes: This may be configured with one or more key value pairs of resource attribute names and resource attribute configurations.
  • attributes This may be configured with one or more key value pairs of attribute names and attribute configurations
  • metrics: This is the only required parameter. The must be configured with one or more key value pairs of metric names and metric configuration.
Resource Attribute Configuration

Resource attribute configurations are used to define what resource attributes will be used in a collection.

Field Name Description Value
oid Required if no scalar_oid or indexed_value_prefix. This is the column OID in a SNMP table which will use the returned indexed SNMP data to create resource attribute values for unique resources. Metric configurations will reference these resource attribute configurations in order to assign metrics data to resources string
scalar_oid Required if no oid or indexed_value_prefix. This is the scalar OID which will return non-indexed SNMP data to create resource attribute values for unique resources. Metric configurations will reference these resource attribute configurations in order to assign metrics data to resources string
indexed_value_prefix Required if no scalar_oid or oid. This is a string prefix which will be added to the indices of returned metric indexed SNMP data to create resource attribute values for unique resources. Metric configurations will reference these resource attribute configurations in order to assign metrics data to resources string
description Definition of what the resource attribute represents string
Attribute Configuration

Attribute configurations are used to define what resource attributes will be used in a collection.

Field Name Description Value
oid Required if no indexed_value_prefix or enum. This is the column OID in a SNMP table which will use the returned indexed SNMP data to create attribute values for the attribute. Metric configurations will reference these attribute configurations in order to assign these attributes and indexed data values to metrics and their datapoints string
indexed_value_prefix Required if no oid or enum. This is a string prefix which will be added to the indices of returned metric indexed SNMP data to create attribute values the attribute. Metric configurations will reference these attribute configurations in order to assign these attributes and index based value to metrics and their datapoints string
enum Required if no oid or indexed_value_prefix. This should be a list of values that are possible for this attribute. Metric configurations will reference these attribute configurations in order to assign these attributes and values to metrics and their datapoints string[]
description Definition of what the attribute represents string
Metric Configuration
Field Name Description Value Default
unit Required. To display what is actually being measured for this metric string 1
gauge Required if no sum. Details that this metric is of the gauge type GaugeMetric
sum Required if no gauge. Details that this metric is of the sum type SumMetric
column_oids Required if no scalar_oids. Details that this metric is made from one or more columns in an SNMP table. The returned indexed SNMP data for these OIDs might either be datapoints on a single metrics, or datapoints across multiple metrics attached to different resources depending on the column OID configurations ColumnOID[]
scalar_oids Required if no column_oids. Details that this metric is made from one or more scalard SNMP values (multiple scalar OIDs would represent multiple datapoints within the same metric) ScalarOID[]
description Definition of what the metric represents string
GaugeMetric Configuration
Field Name Description Value Default
value_type The value type of this metric's data. Can be either int or double string double
SumMetric Configuration
Field Name Description Value Default
value_type The value type of this metric's data. Can be either int or double string double
monotonic Whether this is a monotonic sum or not bool false
aggregation The aggregation type of this metric's data. Can be either cumulative or delta string cumulative
ScalarOID Configuration
Field Name Description Value Default
oid The SNMP scalar OID value to grab data from (must end in .0). string
resource_attributes The names of the related resource attribute configurations, allowing scalar oid metrics to be added to resources that have one or more scalar oid resource attributes. Cannot have indexed resource attributes as values. string[]
attributes The names of the related attribute enum configurations as well as the values to attach to this returned SNMP scalar data. This can be used to have a metric config with multiple ScalarOIDs as different datapoints with different attributue values within the same metric Attribute
ColumnOID Configuration
Field Name Description Value Default
oid The SNMP scalar OID value to grab data from (must end in .0). string
attributes The names of the related attribute configurations as well as the enum values to attach to this returned SNMP indexed data if the attribute configuration has enum data. This can be used to attach a specific metric SNMP column OID to an attribute. In doing so, multiple datapoints for a single metric will be created for each returned SNMP indexed data value for the metric along with different attribute values to differentiate them. This also can be used to have a metric config with multiple ColumnOIDs as different datapoints with different attributue values within the same metric Attribute[]
resource_attributes The names of the related resource attribute configurations. This is used to attach a specific metric SNMP column OID to a resource attribute. In doing so, multiple resources will be created for each returned SNMP indexed data value for the metric string[]

value If the referred to attribute configuration is of enum type, the specific enum value that should be used for this specific attribute string
