How to set up SNMP in Ubuntu server 18.04 to report access point activity to Zabbix dashboard?
I really need assistance in setting up SNMP to work with Zabbix on my dashboard.
I have set up an Ubuntu 18.04 Zabbix server and have added over 18 agents. All virtual machines with Zabbix agents and they are working great!
Now I have gotten to the point where I need to have the AP's set up for Zabbix.
I have followed the instructions and did the following so far:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install snmp snmp-mibs-downloader
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install snmpd
I opened sudo nano /etc/snmp/snmp.conf and commented the following line:
#mibs :
Then I went into the configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
And from there I made changes to the following lines:
Listen for connections from the local system only
agentAddress udp:127.0.0.1:161 <--- commented this part.
Listen for connections on all interfaces (both IPv4 and IPv6)
agentAddress udp:161,udp6:[::1]:161 <--remove the comment from this line to make it work.
Then I set up the Zabbix dashboard side. I will attach pictures of the set-up.
1st zabbix dashboard menu
2nd dashboard set-up menu
I get the following error:
This is a picture of the error I receive.
I will also attach picture 4 that shows my meraki access point set-up.
Meraki AP SNMP set-up.
Lastly, I will add a picture 5 that shows the Linux Zabbix server terminal set up on that config file.
Linux Zabbix Server
I am stomped and cannot figure out why Zabbix still throwing out that error.
Any help on this or at least being pointed in the right direction will be greatly appreciated!
I have googled till I dropped and gone thru the Zabbix documentation but cannot find a solution to my problem.
Thank You.
