uptime

Exactly what monitoring software are you looking to install?

Keep in mind that there is already a monitoring process called "Astwatch" running your trixbox, which ensures that Asterisk and other critical processes are running and healthy. Typically, you should not require any further monitoring.

Thanks,

Asterisk 1.4 supports a MIB for SIP and IAX. There are some comments around running, MRTG on the Asterisk box, this would rock.

I am going to try this in the next few weeks and let everyone know the results.

Anybody else interested or trying to do the same thing?

We use n-able to monitor all our client networks. We are trying to develop a way to monitor health status remotely for each pbx we have deployed. We ran into one issue that a hard disk ran out of space because of recordings. There are several ways to monitor and get alerts for this but we already have a tool that automatically sets up tickets when alerts come in, we just need to get hooked in via snmp. We are having problems when doing localhost lookups.

# snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex
Timeout: No Response from localhost

Here is my snmpd.conf file:

####
# First, map the community name "public" into a "security name"

# sec.name source community
# com2sec notConfigUser default public
com2sec local localhost public
com2sec mynetwork 192.168.210/24 public

####
# Second, map the security name into a group name:

# groupName securityModel securityName
#group notConfigGroup v1 notConfigUser
#group notConfigGroup v2c notConfigUser
group MyRWGroup v1 local
group MyRWGroup v2c local
group MyRWGroup usm local
group MyROGroup v1 mynetwork
group MyROGroup v2c mynetwork
group MyROGroup usm mynetwork

####
# Third, create a view for us to let the group have rights to:

# Make at least snmpwalk -v 1 localhost -c public system fast again.
# name incl/excl subtree mask(optional)
#view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.1
#view systemview included .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1
view all included .1 80

####
# Finally, grant the group read-only access to the systemview view.

# group context sec.model sec.level prefix read write notif
#access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact systemview none none
access MyROGroup "?" any noauth exact all none none
access MyRWGroup "?" any noauth exact all all none

Any help would be appreciated.
