Apache

Either use SNMP extend or use the agent.

Note that you need to install and configure the Apache mod_status module before trying the script.

SNMP Extend
  1. Download the script onto the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/apache-stats.py -O /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
  1. Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py)

  2. Verify it is working by running /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py In some cases urlgrabber and pycurl needs to be installed, in Debian this can be achieved by: apt-get install python-urlgrabber python-pycurl . Make sure to remove /tmp/apache-snmp afterwards.

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend apache /etc/snmp/apache-stats.py
  1. Restart snmpd on your host

  2. Test by running

snmpwalk <various options depending on your setup> localhost NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendOutput2Table
Agent

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the apache script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

  1. Verify it is working by running /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/apache (If you get error like "Can't locate LWP/Simple.pm". libwww-perl needs to be installed: apt-get install libwww-perl)
  2. On the device page in Librenms, edit your host and check the Apache under the Applications tab.

BIND9 aka named

1: Create stats file with appropriate permissions:

~$ touch /var/run/named/stats
~$ chown bind:bind /var/run/named/stats

Change user:group to the user and group that's running bind/named.

2: Bind/named configuration:

options {
	...
	statistics-file "/var/run/named/stats";
	zone-statistics yes;
	...
};

3: Restart your bind9/named after changing the configuration.

4: Verify that everything works by executing rndc stats && cat /var/run/named/stats. In case you get a Permission Denied error, make sure you chown'ed correctly.

5: Also be aware that this file is appended to each time rndc stats is called. Given this it is suggested you setup file rotation for it. Alternatively you can also set zero_stats to 1 in the config.

6: The script for this also requires the Perl module File::ReadBackwards. On FreeBSD this is available as p5-File-ReadBackwards and on linux as perl-File-ReadBackwards in CentOS/Redhat and libfile-readbackwards-perl Debian/Ubuntu. If it is not available, it can be installed by cpan -i File::ReadBackwards.

7: You may possible need to configure the agent/extend script as well.

The config file's path defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/bind, the config file will be /etc/snmp/bind.config. Alternatively you can also specific a config via -c $file.

Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables is $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabes at either the start or end of a line are ignored.

The variables are as below.

rndc = The path to rndc. Default: /usr/bin/env rndc
call_rndc = A 0/1 boolean on weather to call rndc stats. Suggest to set to 0 if using netdata. Default: 1
stats_file = The path to the named stats file. Default: /var/run/named/stats
agent = A 0/1 boolean for if this is being used as a LibreNMS agent or not. Default: 0
zero_stats = A 0/1 boolean for if the stats file should be zeroed first. Default: 0 (1 if guessed)

If you want to guess at the configuration, call it with -g and it will print out what it thinks it should be.

8: On the device page in Librenms, edit your host and check BIND under the Applications tab.

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the bind shell script, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)

wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/bind -O /etc/snmp/bind

2: Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/bind)

3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

extend bind /etc/snmp/bind

4: Restart snmpd on the host in question.

Agent

1: Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind via wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/bind -O /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind

2: Run chmod +x /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/bind

3: Set the variable 'agent' to '1' in the config.

C.H.I.P

C.H.I.P. is a $9 R8 based tiny computer ideal for small projects.
Further details: https://getchip.com/pages/chip

SNMP Extend

  1. Copy the shell script to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/snmp/chip.sh -O /etc/snmp/power-stat.sh
  1. Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/power-stat.sh)

  2. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

  1. Restart snmpd on your host

DHCP Stats

A small shell script that reports current DHCP leases stats.

SNMP Extend
  1. Copy the shell script to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)
wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/dhcp-status.sh -O /etc/snmp/dhcp-status.sh
  1. Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/dhcp-status.sh)

  2. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend dhcpstats /etc/snmp/dhcp-status.sh
  1. Restart snmpd on your host

EXIM Stats

SNMP extend script to get your exim stats data into your host.

SNMP Extend
  1. Copy the exim stats to /etc/snmp/ (or any other suitable location) on your host.

  2. Make the script executable: chmod +x /etc/snmp/exim-stats.sh

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend exim-stats /etc/snmp/exim-stats.sh
  1. If you are using sudo edit your sudo users (usually visudo) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /etc/snmp/exim-stats.sh, /usr/bin/exim*
  1. Restart snmpd on your host

Fail2ban

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the shell script, fail2ban, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/fail2ban -O /etc/snmp/fail2ban)

2: Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/fail2ban)

3: Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend fail2ban /etc/snmp/fail2ban

If you want to use the cache, it is as below, by using the -c switch.

extend fail2ban /etc/snmp/fail2ban -c

If you want to use the cache and update it if needed, this can by using the -c and -U switches.

extend fail2ban /etc/snmp/fail2ban -c -U

If you need to specify a custom location for the fail2ban-client, that can be done via the -f switch.

If not specified, "/usr/bin/env fail2ban-client" is used.

extend fail2ban /etc/snmp/fail2ban -f /foo/bin/fail2ban-client

5: Restart snmpd on your host

6: If you wish to use caching, add the following to /etc/crontab and restart cron.

*/3    *    *    *    *    root    /etc/snmp/fail2ban -u 

7: Restart or reload cron on your system.

If you have more than a few jails configured, you may need to use caching as each jail needs to be polled and fail2ban-client can't do so in a timely manner for than a few. This can result in failure of other SNMP information being polled.

For additional details of the switches, please see the POD in the script it self at the top.

It is worth noting that this only monitors a single pool. If you want to monitor multiple pools, this won't do it.

Pi-hole

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the shell script, pi-hole, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/pi-hole -O /etc/snmp/pi-hole)

4: To get all data you must get your API auth token from Pi-hole server and change the API_AUTH_KEY entry inside the snmp script.

5: Restard snmpd.

6: On the device page in Librenms, edit your host and check the Pi-hole under the Applications tab or wait for it to be auto-discovered.

Postfix

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the shell script, postfix-queues, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postfix-queues -O /etc/snmp/postfix-queues)

2: Copy the Perl script, postfixdetailed, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postfixdetailed -O /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed)

3: Make the scripts executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfix-queues)

extend postfixdetailed /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed

5: Restart snmpd.

6: Install pflogsumm for your OS.

7: Make sure the cache file in /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is some place that snmpd can write too. This file is used for tracking changes between various values between each time it is called by snmpd. Also make sure the path for pflogsumm is correct.

8: Run /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed to create the initial cache file so you don't end up with some crazy initial starting value. Please note that each time /etc/snmp/postfixdetailed is ran, the cache file is updated, so if this happens in between LibreNMS doing it then the values will be thrown off for that polling period.

Postgres

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the shell script, postgres, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/postgres -O /etc/snmp/postgres)

2: Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/postgres)

3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

extend postgres /etc/snmp/postgres

4: Restart snmpd on your host

5: Install the Nagios check check_postgres.pl on your system.

6: Verify the path to check_postgres.pl in /etc/snmp/postgres is correct.

7: If you wish it to ignore the database postgres for totalling up the stats, set ignorePG to 1(the default) in /etc/snmp/postgres. If you are using netdata or the like, you may wish to set this or otherwise that total will be very skewed on systems with light or moderate usage.

PowerDNS

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the powerdns-recursor script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

This script uses rec_control get-all to collect stats.

PowerDNS-dnsdist

SNMP Extend
  1. Copy the BASH script to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices)
wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/powerdns-dnsdist -O /etc/snmp/powerdns-dnsdist   
  1. Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/powerdns-dnsdist)

  2. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend powerdns-dnsdist /etc/snmp/powerdns-dnsdist
  1. Restart snmpd on your host.

Proxmox

  1. For Proxmox 4.4+ install the libpve-apiclient-perl package apt install libpve-apiclient-perl

  2. Download the script onto the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/librenms/librenms-agent/master/agent-local/proxmox -O /usr/local/bin/proxmox

  3. Make the script executable: chmod +x /usr/local/bin/proxmox

  4. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add: extend proxmox /usr/local/bin/proxmox

  5. Note: if your snmpd doesn't run as root, you might have to invoke the script using sudo and modify the "extend" line

extend proxmox /usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/proxmox 

after, edit your sudo users (usually visudo) and add at the bottom:

snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/proxmox
  1. Restart snmpd on your host

Raspberry PI

SNMP extend script to get your PI data into your host.

SNMP Extend
  1. Copy the raspberry script to /etc/snmp/ (or any other suitable location) on your PI host.

  2. Make the script executable: chmod +x /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh

  3. Edit your snmpd.conf file (usually /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) and add:

extend raspberry /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh
  1. Edit your sudo users (usually visudo) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /etc/snmp/raspberry.sh, /usr/bin/vcgencmd*
  1. Restart snmpd on PI host

SMART

SNMP Extend

1: Copy the Perl script, smart, to the desired host (the host must be added to LibreNMS devices) (wget https://github.com/librenms/librenms-agent/raw/master/snmp/smart -O /etc/snmp/smart)

2: Make the script executable (chmod +x /etc/snmp/smart)

3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add:

extend smart /etc/snmp/smart

4: You will also need to create the config file, which defaults to the same path as the script, but with .config appended. So if the script is located at /etc/snmp/smart, the config file will be /etc/snmp/smart.config. Alternatively you can also specific a config via -c.

Anything starting with a # is comment. The format for variables is $variable=$value. Empty lines are ignored. Spaces and tabes at either the start or end of a line are ignored. Any line with out a = or # are treated as a disk.

#This is a comment
cache=/var/cache/smart
smartctl=/usr/bin/env smartctl
ada0
ada1

The variables are as below.

cache = The path to the cache file to use. Default: /var/cache/smart
smartctl = The path to use for smartctl. Default: /usr/bin/env smartctl

If you want to guess at the configuration, call it with -g and it will print out what it thinks it should be. This will result in a usable config, but may miss some less common disk devices.

5: Restart snmpd on your host

If you have a large number of more than one or two disks on a system, you should consider adding this to cron. Also make sure the cache file is some place it can be written to.

 */3 * * * * /etc/snmp/smart -u
  1. If your snmp agent runs as user "snmp", edit your sudo users (usually visudo) and add at the bottom:
snmp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /etc/snmp/smart, /usr/sbin/smartctl

and modify your snmpd.conf file accordingly:

extend smart /usr/bin/sudo /etc/snmp/smart

Squid

SNMP Proxy

1: Enable SNMP for Squid like below, if you have not already, and restart it.

acl snmppublic snmp_community public
snmp_port 3401
snmp_access allow snmppublic localhost
snmp_access deny all

2: Restart squid on your host.

3: Edit your snmpd.conf file and add, making sure you have the same community, host, and port as above:

proxy -v 2c -c public 127.0.0.1:3401 1.3.6.1.4.1.3495

TinyDNS aka djbdns

Agent

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the tinydns script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

Note: We assume that you use DJB's Daemontools to start/stop tinydns. And that your tinydns instance is located in /service/dns, adjust this path if necessary.

  1. Replace your log's run file, typically located in /service/dns/log/run with:
#!/bin/sh
exec setuidgid dnslog tinystats ./main/tinystats/ multilog t n3 s250000 ./main/
  1. Create tinystats directory and chown:
mkdir /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
chown dnslog:nofiles /service/dns/log/main/tinystats
  1. Restart TinyDNS and Daemontools: /etc/init.d/svscan restart Note: Some say svc -t /service/dns is enough, on my install (Gentoo) it doesn't rehook the logging and I'm forced to restart it entirely.

Unbound

Unbound configuration:

# Enable extended statistics.
server:
        extended-statistics: yes
        statistics-cumulative: yes

remote-control:
        control-enable: yes
        control-interface: 127.0.0.1

Restart your unbound after changing the configuration, verify it is working by running 'unbound-control stats'.

Agent

Install the agent on this device if it isn't already and copy the unbound.sh script to /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/local/

SNMP Extend
