Hi from Germany,
I think, we are talking about different use-cases. Adam implemented a (great) possibility to add ping/http/what-ever checks (https://docs.observium.org/ping_only/) to a running Observium host. The use-case of Thomas (and me) is a little bit different: We need a possibility to add a device to Observium with “reduced features” (according to the missing SNMP connectivity) but full functionality (were possible). In my opinion a switch to skip the SNMP-poll during the add-process and a (manual) change from SNMP to a “ping poller” would fit our needs. Location, Type, Description … can be edited manually … and as “full-featured” device the great API can be used for data-exchange.

If you haven't already; add the Observium host as a device. Then add the icmp probe to your Observium device.

Hi I don't really get it sorry, it seems that you can add the probe check after the device is added to Observium. However, how can i add the device (./add_device.php or via ui) to Observium if it doesn't speak SNMP. For me it always fails with Could not reach apar01 with given SNMP parameters using v1.

Hi How can i add a device which cannot (!) speak any snmp and only responds to ping/icmp requests? We have an Aruba wlan setup (Mobility Master and two Mobility Controllers) and i want to add the aps to Observium, so that they are monitored but only by ping/icmp. (The MM and the two MCs are already added to Observium, but i cannot see if one AP went offline or came back online again) The aps cannot speak any snmp when managed by the MM or MC, thats why it fails when i try to add one via ./add_device.php I appreciate any help :) Best, Thomas -- Thomas Stather IT Services VCP4, VCP6-DCV, VCP6.5-DCV Tel: +49 6221 486 628 Fax: +49 6221 486 561 Bevor Sie diese Mail ausdrucken, prüfen Sie bitte ob dies wirklich nötig ist.
