Net-SNMP installation.

master branch: develop branch:

Introduction

This module manages the installation of Net-SNMP client, server, and trap server. It also can create a SNMPv3 user with authentication and privacy passwords.

Actions:

• Installs the SNMP client package and configuration.
• Installs the SNMP daemon package, service, and configuration.
• Installs the SNMP trap daemon service and configuration.
• Creates a SNMPv3 user with authentication and encryption paswords.

OS Support:

• RedHat family - tested on CentOS 5.8 and CentOS 6.2
• SuSE family - presently unsupported (patches welcome)
• Debian family - initial Debian & Ubuntu suport (patches welcome)
• Solaris family - presently unsupported (patches welcome)

Class documentation is available via puppetdoc.

Examples

class { 'snmp': }

class { 'snmp::server':
  ro_community => 'notpublic',
  ro_network   => '10.20.30.40/32',
  contact      => 'root@yourdomain.org',
  location     => 'Phoenix, AZ',
}

class { 'snmp::trapd':
  ro_community => 'public',
}

snmp::snmpv3_user { 'myuser':
  authpass => '1234auth',
  privpass => '5678priv',
}

Notes

• Only tested on CentOS 5.8, CentOS 6.2 x86_64, and Debian squeeze.
• SNMPv3 user auth is not tested on Debian.
• There is a bug on Debian squeeze of net-snmp's status script. If snmptrapd is not running the status script returns 'not running' so puppet restarts the snmpd service. The following is a workaround: class { 'snmp::server': service_hasstatus => false, }

Issues

• Debian will not support the use of non-numeric OIDs. Something about rabid freedom.
• On osfamily Debian, starting the snmptrap service does not work. This will be fixed in the upcomming refactor of this module.

Deprecation Warning

The classes snmp::server and snmp::trapd will be merged into class snmp. All of their class parameters will be made available in the snmp class.
