Hi,

 for basic support (detect correct OS, version, etc) you can send snmp access to your device.

If want someting more (sensors/statuses, etc) you can use Professional Services http://www.observium.org/services/

P.S. But note, all changes will be avialable in the proffesional edition, and in community only in next CE release.

Hello list,

 

Let me get this out of the way; I am not a developer.

 

Anyway, I have the pleasure of supporting a network that has older Nortel and Avaya devices on it. I’ve added them to observium and as expected they are showing up as generic devices. I browsed through the developer section on how to add new device support and I have followed those steps and have added some very basic support for Nortel switches (OS version and Serial Number)

First question – would this extra support be of any interest to the Observium devs?

 

I’d like to add more meaningful information such as CPU/Memory utilization, flash usage, etc. However, that step appears to be a bit more challenging. Second question – is this documented somewhere or do I need to “reverse engineer” this support from the existing scripts?

 

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

AJ Schroeder
