SNMP

Fudo Enterprise’s status can be monitored over SNMPv3 protocol.


Configuring SNMP


  1. Select Settings > System.
  2. Select SNMPv3 option in the Maintenance and supervision section.
  3. From the IP address drop-down list select IP address, which will be used for SNMP communication.
  4. Click Save.
  1. Select Management > Users.
  2. Click Add user.
  3. Enter user name and select Service from the Role drop-down list.

Note

SNMP configuration is available only for user with the Service role.

  1. Fill in the rest of the parameters if needed.
  2. Click Save to create the user and to be able to assign authentication methods.
  3. Select Static password from the Authentication drop-down list and enter the password string.

Note

  • SNMP user password must be at least eight characters long.
  • SNMP service authenticates the service account using the first defined password.
  1. Go to the More tab, and in the SNMP field, click Enabled to use SNMP.
  2. Select SHA or MD5 from the Authentication method drop-down list.
  3. Select AES or DES from the Encryption method drop-down list.
  4. Click Save.

Configuring SNMPv3 TRAP

On Policies violation, Fudo is able to send a SNMPv3 TRAP, fudoPolicyViolationNotification with information containing during which session which user violated which policy. For more details check Fudo’s MIB definition in the following section.


To configure SNMP TRAPs, the administrator has to configure the service in the System settings and enable it for a particular policy.


To configure the policy for sending SNMPv3 TRAP notifications about suspicious sessions, follow below procedure:


  1. Select Management > Users.
  2. Click Add user.
  3. Enter user name and select Service from the Role drop-down list.

Note

SNMP configuration is available only for user with the Service role.

  1. Fill in the rest of the parameters if needed.
  2. Click Save to create the user and to be able to assign authentication methods.
  3. Select Static password from the Authentication drop-down list and enter the password string.

Note

  • SNMP user password must be at least eight characters long.
  • SNMP service authenticates the service account using the first defined password.
  1. Go to the More tab, and in the SNMP field, click Enabled to use SNMP.
  2. Select SHA or MD5 from the Authentication method drop-down list.
  3. Select AES or DES from the Encryption method drop-down list.
  4. Click Save or Save and close.
  5. Go to Settings > System
  6. Scroll down to the Maintenance and supervision section and select the SNMPv3 TRAP option.
  7. Configure the SNMPv3 TRAP Server address and Port.
  8. Select the user with the Service role, created in step 1.
  9. Click Save.

As Fudo Enterprise uses SNMPv3 for sending TRAPs, the manager software (such as snmptrapd from Net-SNMP) has to know the user’s name and password.

Note

The fudoPolicyViolationNotification TRAP contains Fudo object identifiers: sessionId, userId and policyId. As all identifiers in Fudo Enterprise are 64-bit integers and SNMP doesn’t support 64-bit integers natively, those ids are encoded as big-endian 8-byte arrays.

SNMP MIBs

Fudo Enterprise supports following MIBs:

  • MIB-II (RFC 1213)
  • HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (RFC 2790) - partly supported
  • UCD-SNMP-MIB.

Getting SNMP readings using snmpwalk

Note

Getting SNMP readings requires installing Net-SNMP 5.7.3.

Fetching all SNMP information

snmpwalk -v3 -u "${SNMP_USER}" -a SHA -A "${SNMP_PASSWORD}" -x AES -X "${SNMP_PASSWORD}" -l authPriv "${FUDO_IP}" .1


Fetching specific SNMP information

snmpwalk -v3 -u "${SNMP_USER}" -a SHA -A "${SNMP_PASSWORD}" -x AES -X "${SNMP_PASSWORD}" -l authPriv "${FUDO_IP}" .1.3.6.1.4.1.24410


Data specifier Description
.1.3.6.1.4.1.24410.1.1.1 Disk status (ZFS status)
.1.3.6.1.4.1.24410.1.1.2

Power supply status

Note

This feature is not supported on all Fudo Enterprise units. Contact technical support for more information.
.1.3.6.1.4.1.24410.1.1.3 CPU temperatures
.1.3.6.1.4.1.24410.1.1.4 S.M.A.R.T status

Fudo Enterprise specific SNMP extensions


Overview

Extensions enable monitoring the number of active sessions, ZFS status, PSU status (if available), CPU temperature on all cores, S.M.A.R.T status such as temperature, health or reallocated sectors.
