Hi,
I have a bit of a puzzler and I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I’m monitoring a number of Mikrotik devices. I’m unable to set the temperature thresholds on the device. They all seem to report different thresholds despite the fact that they are all spec’d at -30c to 70c. Instead of going into each device’s settings in Observium and making a custom threshold, is there any way for me to do it in the config file? or some other way using “os eq routeros”?
Thanks,
Joey
I also have this problem with voltage as well.

Hi Joey,
We don't have a way of doing this at the moment (beyond messing with the database itself).
When we don't get a threshold from a device, we "guess" one by making a range +/- a certain percentage from the measured value.
I'm not really sure how we could add group threshold setting, anyone have any ideas?

Best way is to get Mikrotik to report the thresholds via SNMP ;)
Other than that, TBD... :/

Ha! Yeah. Good luck with that. :-)
The only workaround I can think of is to disable all temperature and voltage threshold alerting at the device level, and then add a checker similar to “os eq routerboard”, “sensor_type eq ‘temperature’”, sensor_value gt 65 AND sensor_value lt -25” or some such. Not sure if it’ll work.

per device overrides also work (tab=edit/section=sensors/) so that may be the path of least resistance. If that could be globally set in config.php as an override, that would be a nicer UX (for me at least).

I’m not sure this is really an option but could they be set in the MIB? We can go look up the rates specs for each model and add them (and by we I mean me)

I just realized I didn’t know what I was talking about here. This would be wrong for a few reasons.
