If you have 'dmidecode' installed on your host, you can add the following lines for additional hardware detection.
**NOTE**: On some systems the snmpd is running as its own user, which means it can't read `/sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_serial` which is mode 0400. One solution is to `chmod 444 /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_serial` in `/etc/rc.local` or equivalent.
**NOTE**: On some systems the snmpd is running as an own user, making dmidecode unable to read out `/dev/mem` and thus showing multiple errors. Either add the snmp user to the `kmem` group or remove these lines again.
```
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.7890.2 hardware '/usr/sbin/dmidecode -s system-product-name'
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.7890.3 manufacturer '/usr/sbin/dmidecode -s system-manufacturer'
extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.7890.4 serial '/usr/sbin/dmidecode -s system-serial-number'
```
The LibreNMS server include a copy of this example here:
