Prerequisitesβ
SNMP Configurationβ
To use this pack, the SNMP service must be properly configured on your Alcatel Omniswitch server. Please refer to the official documentation from Alcatel:
Network flowβ
The target server must be reachable from the Centreon poller on the UDP/161 SNMP port.
Setupβ
- Online License
- Offline License
- Install the package on every Centreon poller expected to monitor Alcatel Omniswitch resources:
yum install centreon-plugin-Network-Switchs-Alcatel-Omniswitch-Snmp
- On the Centreon web interface, on page Configuration > Monitoring Connectors Manager, install the Alcatel Omniswitch Centreon Monitoring Connector.
- Install the package on every Centreon poller expected to monitor Alcatel Omniswitch resources:
yum install centreon-plugin-Network-Switchs-Alcatel-Omniswitch-Snmp
- Install the Alcatel Omniswitch Centreon Monitoring Connector RPM on the Centreon central server:
yum install centreon-pack-network-switchs-alcatel-omniswitch-snmp
- On the Centreon web interface, on page Configuration > Monitoring Connectors Manager, install the Alcatel Omniswitch Centreon Monitoring Connector.
Configurationβ
Hostβ
- Log into Centreon and add a new host through Configuration > Hosts.
- Fill the Name, Alias and IP Address / DNS fields according to your Alcatel Omniswitch equipment settings.
- Apply the Net-Alcatel-OmniSwitch-SNMP-custom template to the host.

How to check in the CLI that the configuration is OK and what are the main options for?β
Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon poller's CLI using the
centreon-engine user account (su - centreon-engine
) and test the plugin by
running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_alcatel_omniswitch_snmp.pl \
--plugin=network::alcatel::omniswitch::snmp::plugin \
--mode=interfaces \
--hostname=10.0.0.1 \
--snmp-version='2c' \
--snmp-community='my-snmp-community' \
--interface='' \
--name \
--warning-in-traffic='' \
--critical-in-traffic='' \
--warning-out-traffic='' \
--critical-out-traffic='' \
--use-new-perfdata
The expected command output is shown below:
OK: Traffic In : 321.02b/s (-) Traffic Out : 382.02b/s (-) | 'interface.traffic.in.bitspersecond'=9000b/s;;;0; 'interface.traffic.out.bitspersecond'=9000b/s;;;0;
All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the
--help
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_alcatel_omniswitch_snmp.pl \
--plugin=network::alcatel::omniswitch::snmp::plugin \
--mode=interfaces \
--help
All available modes can be displayed by adding the --list-mode
parameter to
the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_alcatel_omniswitch_snmp.pl \
--plugin=network::alcatel::omniswitch::snmp::plugin \
--list-mode
