asterisk users - Dec 2015 - SNMP on Asterisk 11

All;

I am trying to setup SNMP on an Asterisk 11 system on CentOS 6. I have the
net-snmp packages installed and I made sure that SNMP support is compiled
into Asterisk and that the res_snmp.so module is loaded. res_snmp.conf is
configured like so:

 

[general]

subagent = yes

enabled = yes

 

My /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file has the AgentX support configured.

 

master agentx

agentXPerms  0660 0550 nobody asterisk

 

 

And both the Asterisk mib and the Digium mib are being loaded. I check that
by

 
>> snmptranslate -On -Td ASTERISK-MIB::asteriskVersion
 

.1.3.6.1.4.1.22736.1.1

asteriskVersion OBJECT-TYPE

  -- FROM       ASTERISK-MIB

::= { iso(1) org(3) dod(6) internet(1) private(4) enterprises(1)
digium(22736) asterisk(1) 1 }

 

 

When I do a query on a non-asterisk OID, I do get a valid response. However,
when I try to do a query using the Asterisk mib, I'm getting the following
error:

 
>> snmpwalk -v 2c -c private localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.22736.1.1
 

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.22736.1.1 = No Such Object available on this agent
at this OID

 

 

Has anyone ever come across this problem? Any insight at all would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks;

John V.

I have this working, so I'll try to help, by comparing what you've said
with my working setup.

That's ok. Same as mine.

I have "root root" instead of "nobody asterisk". I don't
know whether that
is significant or not. It may be. Try it.

Whether the MIB is loaded or not doesn't matter, if you are specifying
an OID by number. It's just for translation, a bit like DNS for IP addrs.

I get:
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.22736.1.1.1.0 = STRING: "11.18.0"
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.22736.1.1.2.0 = Gauge32: 111800

The other thing to check is further up in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf. See what
views are defined, and the access groups to which they have been assigned,
as they specify what part(s) of the OID tree will be served.

I have this:

##           incl/excl subtree                          mask
view all    included  .1                               80

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


which makes everything under .1 visible. Not sure if that is the default or not.

Cheers
