Unable to configure DD-WRT SNMP monitoring with Zabbix












1














Installed Zabbix on Ubuntu but not sure what setting I missed. Base on my concept, I would like to using SNMP to monitoring DD-WRT router which it using SNMP service.



I did enable to SNMP service at DD-WRT router page. And also created a host at Zabbix with included DD-WRT template. After I done it I still unable to get any connection/information at Zabbix which mean the router doesn't communicate with Zabbix.



The above picture is my DD-WRT's SNMP configuration.

Also this is the Zabbix configuration which I have created the service to monitoring my DD-WRT router.

Two possibilities:




  • Install zabbix-agent on the DD-WRT router

  • Do not use the DD-WRT template, but either use an SNMP template or create your custom items


All your items are of type Zabbix Agent. This requires that agent to run on the device. No data will be pulled by SNMP with this config.

  • And yes.. that's the second choice I mentioned: Add the Host in Zabbix using the Template_SNMPv2_Device. You can also add additional SNMP items that are exposed by the router's MIB, but not in the Template.

  • What I did rightnow is my currently my router IP is 192.168.1.1 and I create a host at Zabbix also put the SNMP interfaces as 191.168.1.1. I were follow this http://projectdaenney.org/blog/2012/10/14/zabbix-baby-steps-part-1/ to configure the setting. After I done this basic setting, I create a host to monitoring my router which I have add the Template SNMP Generic as my template., but I still unable to monitoring my router which is come wiht Timeout while connecting to "192.168.1.1:161`.

  • Just to make sure: You've activated the SNMP agent and can also connect to it through an SNMP browser on your PC? Community names (public/private) match? What's not clear to me is "I create a host... After I done this basic setting, I create a host.." - you're not creating two hosts, aren't you?
