Hi

 

We have a bunch of Merakis in Observium, and we got the nice graphs and stuff. Then somebody asked for serial numbers for inventory purposes, and … they’re not there.

 

I did an SNMP walk on a single Meraki device, and that’s really sparse, explaining the lack of info in Observium. Then I added the Meraki dashboard (available at snmp.meraki.com), and let Observium have a look at that. It basically told me that it resides in San Francisco. Doing an SNMP walk on that does reveal all the necessary info, though, so it is there.

 

Any plans on parsing the Meraki dashboard into Observium and get info on devices that way? If not, we can pull the serials from elsewhere, but it would be cool to know if it’s coming.

Parsing any dashboard (any web page) for any device completely pointless occupation.
These pages are dynamic, they can change at the whim of the manufacturer.

The only possible option (besides snmp) any common (documented) API.
But as I know, Meraki doesn't even support that.
