====== Gateway monitoring ======

===== Monit daemon =====

Monit is an open source supervision tool. It can monitor daemons, system resources, remote hosts or programs. It is recommended to use monit to monitor your applications. Please see [[https://mmonit.com/monit/|online documentation]].

The command ''monit status'' returns the status of all supervised services. Services can be started/stopped with monit using the commands ''monit start <name>'' and ''monit stop <name>''.

The monit configuration is made in the directory **''/etc/monit.d''**. It is a directory in which you have to add small scripts to describe what you want to do accordingly to monit specification.

===== Watchdog =====

Watchdog is handled by monit daemon. 

===== SNMP agent =====


Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for monitoring network equipment. The data SNMP management is organized in a management information base (MIB). SNMP agent on Kerlink gateways is based on net-snmp (Net-SNMP). It is included by default with the firmware, however, since this is a generic agent, a few modifications are required to use it.


==== Configuration ====
Configuration file must be in ''/etc/snmp/''.

By default, no configuration (''/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf'') is provided.\\
Create the folder ''/etc/snmp'' and the file ''/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf''.\\
Here under a valid basic configuration:

<code conf snmpd.conf>
###########################################################################
#
# snmpd.conf
#

###########################################################################
# SECTION: Access Control Setup
#
#   This section defines who is allowed to talk to your running
#   snmp agent.

# rwcommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-write access community name
#   arguments:  community [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]

rocommunity  public  
rwcommunity  private  

#
# Unknown directives read in from other files by snmpconf
#
com2sec readwrite "default"   public
com2sec readwrite "default"   private

# Agent port
agentAddress udp:161

###########################################################################
# SECTION: Trap Destinations
#
#   Here we define who the agent will send traps to.

informsink <your_server> public 162

# authtrapenable: Should we send traps when authentication failures occur
#   arguments: 1 | 2   (1 = yes, 2 = no)
authtrapenable  1
</code>

<note warning>
Check your **[[wiki:network_mana:firewall|firewall]]** and note that SNMP ports (by default 161 and 162) should be opened to properly work!
</note>



==== Automatic Execution ====
To automatically execute ''snmpd'' at boot time, a script named ''snmpd'' needs to be created in a new folder ''/etc/init.d/''. 

  * Copy the following script under ''/etc/init.d/snmpd''.
<code init snmpd.init>
#! /bin/sh -e
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:           snmpd
# Required-Start:     $network $local_fs
# Required-Stop:      $network $local_fs
# Default-Start:      2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:       0 6
# Short-Description:  SNMP agents
# Description:        NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Agents
### END INIT INFO
#
set -e

export PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin

test -x /usr/sbin/snmpd || exit 0

# Defaults
export MIBDIRS=/usr/share/snmp/mibs
SNMPDRUN=yes
SNMPDOPTS='-Lsd -p /var/run/snmpd.pid'
TRAPDRUN=no
TRAPDOPTS='-Lsd -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid'

# Reads config file (will override defaults above)
[ -r /etc/default/snmpd ] && . /etc/default/snmpd

ssd_oknodo="-o"

# Cd to / before starting any daemons.
cd /

# Create compatibility link to old AgentX socket location
if [ "$SNMPDCOMPAT" = "yes" ]; then
  ln -sf /var/agentx/master /var/run/agentx
fi

case "$1" in
  start)
    printf "Starting network management services:"
    if [ "$SNMPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ]; then
      start-stop-daemon -S -x /usr/sbin/snmpd -- $SNMPDOPTS
      printf " snmpd"
    fi
    echo "."
    ;;
  stop)
    printf "Stopping network management services:"
    start-stop-daemon -q -K $ssd_oknodo -x /usr/sbin/snmpd
    printf " snmpd"
    echo "."
    ;;
  restart)
    printf "Restarting network management services:"
    start-stop-daemon -q -K $ssd_oknodo -x /usr/sbin/snmpd
    # Allow the daemons time to exit completely.
    sleep 2
    if [ "$SNMPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ]; then
      start-stop-daemon -q -S -x /usr/sbin/snmpd -- $SNMPDOPTS
      printf " snmpd"
    fi
    echo "."
    ;;
  reload|force-reload)
    printf "Reloading network management services:"
    if [ "$SNMPDRUN" = "yes" -a -f /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf ]; then
      start-stop-daemon -q -K -s 1 -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -x /usr/sbin/snmpd
      printf " snmpd"
    fi
    echo "."
    ;;
  *)
    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/snmpd {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload}"
    exit 1
esac

exit 0
</code>

  * Apply executable right to the script:
<code>chmod 700 /etc/init.d/snmpd</code>

  * Create a symbolic link in ''rcU.d'' to the script so so it is executed at boot time.
<code>ln -s /etc/init.d/snmpd /etc/rcU.d/S59snmpd</code>  

  * Create a symbolic link in ''rcK.d'' to the script so so it is executed when the system halts.
<code>ln -s /etc/init.d/snmpd /etc/rcK.d/K59snmpd</code>  

  * Reboot the Wirnet™ gateway (''reboot'' command) or type the below command to start ''snmpd'':
<code>/etc/init.d/snmpd start</code>

  * A monitoring task can be added thanks to [[wiki:systeme_mana:monitoring#monit_daemon|Monit daemon]].
==== Persistency on Update ====
in order to make the configuration stay after an update you will need to create the file snmp.conf in the folder /etc/sysupgrade.d/ with the three following lines:
<code conf snmpd.conf>
/etc/init.d/snmpd 
/etc/rcU.d/S59snmpd
/etc/rcK.d/K59snmpd
</code>

===== Supported MIBs =====

The following MIBs are supported:\\
  * mib2 (RFC1213)
//mibII/vacm_conf\\
mibII/tcpTable\\
mibII/udpTable\\
mibII/system//
  * if-mib
//if-mib/ifTable\\
if-mib/ifTable/ifTable\\
if-mib/ifTable/ifTable_interface//
