node-red-node-snmp

A pair of Node-RED nodes that fetch either individual oids, or a table oid from a SNMP enabled host.

Install

Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red

npm install node-red-node-snmp

Usage

snmp

SNMP oids fetcher. Can fetch a single or comma separated list of oids. Triggered by any input.

msg.host may contain the host.

msg.community may contain the community.

msg.oid may contain a comma separated list of oids to search for. (no spaces)

The host configured in the edit config will override msg.host. Leave blank if you want to use msg.host to provide input.

The community configured in the edit config will override msg.community. Leave blank if you want to use msg.community to provide input.

The oids configured in the edit config will override msg.oid. Leave blank if you want to use msg.oid to provide input.

Outputs msg.payload containing a table of objects, and the requested msg.oid. Values depends on the oids being requested.

snmp-set

SNMP sets the value of one or more OIDs.

msg.host may contain the host.

msg.community may contain the community.

msg.varbinds may contain an array of varbind JSON objects e.g.:

    msg.varbinds = [
        {
            "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0",
            "type": "OctetString",
            "value": "host1"
        }, {
            "oid": "1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0",
            "type": "OctetString",
            "value": "somewhere"
        }
    ];

Types can be:

OID
IpAddress
Counter
Gauge
TimeTicks
Opaque
Integer32
Counter32
