Step 7: SNMP Monitoring

SNMP is used to monitor the remote office from an external location.

Configure SNMP Server

Configure and enable the SNMP server on TNSR, as shown in the example below:

snmp community community-name P1zzaGuy source 198.51.100.0/24 security-name tnsrsnmp
snmp group group-name ROGroup security-name tnsrsnmp security-model v2c
snmp view view-name systemview view-type included oid .1
snmp access group-name ROGroup prefix exact model any level noauth read systemview write none
#
snmp host enable

Permit SNMP Polling with WAN Filter Rule

To permit access to the SNMP server from the WAN, create a WAN filter rule:

vpf filter ruleset WAN-filter
  rule 110
    description Permit SNMP from Corp
    pass
    direction in
    stateful
    protocol tcp
    from ipv4-prefix 198.51.100.0/24
    to ifaddrs WAN
    to port 161
    exit
  exit
