For sure, you are not the first person that has to do something like that. I was assigned a similar work for a VSAT network equipment more than 10 years ago. I used SNMPv2c and the NET-SNMP implementation. It was done, although I would not say it was easy.
If you want to do it with SNMP, through the snmpd daemon, then you should extend it. I would recommend you to make your application alarmd a subagent with AgentX protocol. You will have to define first a MIB, in ASN.1 notation, to declare the SNMP interface to your application and your alarms. Then, run the so called mib2c scripts to generate C code skeletons. There are plenty of examples and tutorials about how to do this in the NET-SNMP website. The information is detailed, although sometimes incomplete. It does not follow a clear path towards a concrete objective. There are a lot of digressions, a lot of options, but after several hours reading and of trials and errors, you can get the idea of how it works. Well, there is not a single solution to this question of implementing SNMP agents, so I suppose it is the only way it can be. I don’t know if your topic is right for this list or maybe it is better for the users list, but I would like to know how this ends. ☺ Best, David De: Mehmet EKICI [mailto:mek...@netas.com.tr] Enviado el: viernes, 30 de septiembre de 2016 8:20 Para: net-snmp-coders@lists.sourceforge.net Asunto: RE: alarmd or another solution Dear All, I have a question or actually some guidance. We are developing a multi process telecom application. I am assigned to design an alarm and statistics interface to the application. Each of our process has some statistics to be monitored and alarms to send and configuration to be managed. Each process has main function processing some packet as main job and statistics, alarm and configuration should not take any resource intensive operations. I am planning a separate process called alarmd which will be interface for external world and internal processes. I did some search over internet to see if an open source implementation exist to inspire. I could not find any this was surprising to be and I thought there should be an issue about it – I can not be the first person who see that linux is missing such a daemon-. Now I am expecting your help about possible implementations and pros and cons of them. P.S. Although there is a process called collectd.
