The SNMP Command Responder daemon runs one or more SNMP agents and maintains one or more trees of SNMP managed objects (i.e. MIBs). The user can interface those managed objects with the data they are willing to serve over SNMP.
SNMP requests received by any of the embedded SNMP agents can be routed to any of the MIB trees for processing via a declarative mini-language.
The use-case for SNMP Command Responder is to serve user data over SNMP.
- SNMPv1/v2c/v3 operations with built-in protocol and transport translation capabilities
- SNMPv3 USM supports MD5/SHA/SHA224/SHA256/SHA384/SHA512 auth and DES/3DES/AES128/AES192/AES256 privacy crypto algorithms
- Maintains multiple independent SNMP engines, network transports and MIB trees
- Discovers
pip
-installable MIB implementations - Extension modules supporting SNMP PDU filtering and on-the-fly modification
- Works on Linux, Windows and OS X
SNMP Command Responder software is freely available for download from PyPI.
Just run:
$ pip install snmpresponder
Alternatively, you can get it from GitHub.
First you need to configure the tool. It is largely driven by configuration files written in a declarative mini-language. To help you started, we maintain a collection of configuration files designed to serve specific use-cases.
If something does not work as expected or we are missing an interesting feature, open an issue at GitHub or post your question on Stack Overflow.
Finally, your PRs are warmly welcome! ;-)
