Prerequisitesβ
To monitor your Aruba, the SNMP must be configured. The Poller should be able to perform SNMP requests toward the Infoblox device over SNMP UDP/161 port.
Setupβ
- Online License
- Offline License
- Install the Centreon Plugin on every Poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Network-Aruba-Aoscx-Snmp
- On the Centreon Web interface in "Configuration > Plugin packs > Manager", install the ArubaOS-CX SNMP Plugin Pack
- Install the Centreon Plugin on every Poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Network-Aruba-Aoscx-Snmp
- On the Centreon Central server, install the Centreon Plugin Pack from the RPM:
yum install centreon-pack-network-aruba-aoscx-snmp
- On the Centreon Web interface in "Configuration > Plugin packs > Manager", install the ArubaOS-CX SNMP Plugin Pack
Host configurationβ
- Add a new Host and fill the IP Address/FQDN, SNMP Version and SNMP Community fields according to the device's configuration
- Apply the Net-Aruba-Aoscx-SNMP-custom Host Template
When using SNMP v3, use the SNMPEXTRAOPTIONS Macro to add specific authentication parameters
Mandatory | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
SNMPEXTRAOPTIONS | Configure your own SNMPv3 credentials combo |
How to test the Plugin and what are the main options for?β
Once the plugin installed, log into your Centreon Poller CLI using the centreon-engine user account and test the Plugin by running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_aruba_aoscx_snmp.pl \
--plugin=network::aruba::aoscx::snmp::plugin \
--mode=vsf \
--hostname=10.30.2.114 \
--snmp-version='2c' \
--snmp-community='aruba_ro' \
--warning-cpu-utilization='90' \
--critical-cpu-utilization='95' \
--verbose
Expected command output is shown below:
OK: vsf operational status: no_split - All stack members are ok | '1#member.cpu.utilization.percentage'=16.00%;0:90;0:95;0;100 '1#member.memory.usage.percentage'=24.00%;;;0;100 '2#member.cpu.utilization.percentage'=4.00%;0:90;0:95;0;100 '2#member.memory.usage.percentage'=14.00%;;;0;100 '3#member.cpu.utilization.percentage'=4.00%;0:90;0:95;0;100 '3#member.memory.usage.percentage'=8.00%;;;0;100 '4#member.cpu.utilization.percentage'=4.00%;0:90;0:95;0;100 '4#member.memory.usage.percentage'=8.00%;;;0;100
checking stack member '1'
role: master [status: ready]
cpu usage: 16.00%
memory used: 24.00 %
checking stack member '2'
role: standby [status: ready]
cpu usage: 4.00%
memory used: 14.00 %
checking stack member '3'
role: member [status: ready]
cpu usage: 4.00%
memory used: 8.00 %
checking stack member '4'
role: member [status: ready]
cpu usage: 4.00%
memory used: 8.00 %
The command above monitors Aruba (--plugin=network::aruba::aoscx::snmp::plugin --mode=vsf
) identified
by the IP address 10.30.2.114 (--hostname=10.30.2.114
). As the Plugin is using the SNMP protocol to request the device, the related
community and version are specified (--snmp-version='2c' --snmp-community='aruba_ro'
).
This command would trigger a WARNING alarm if cpu utilization over 90%
(--warning-cpu-utilization='90'
) and a CRITICAL alarm over 95% (--critical-cpu-utilization='95'
).
All the options as well as all the available thresholds can be displayed by adding the --help
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_aruba_aoscx_snmp.pl \
--plugin=network::aruba::aoscx::snmp::plugin \
--mode=vsf \
--help
Troubleshootingβ
UNKNOWN: SNMP GET Request : Timeoutβ
If you get this message, you're probably facing one of theses issues:
- The SNMP agent of the device isn't started or is misconfigured
- An external device is blocking the request (firewall, ...)
UNKNOWN: SNMP GET Request : Cant get a single value.β
This error message often refers to the following issues:
- The agent doesn't support the MIB used by the plugin
- The targeted SNMP OID cannot be fetched because of insufficient privileges on the device. SNMP Agent must be capable of accessing to the enterprise branch: .1.3.6.1.4.1.47196.4
