Linux by SNMP
Overview
This template is designed for the effortless deployment of Linux monitoring by Zabbix via SNMP and doesn't require any external scripts.
Requirements
Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.
Tested versions
This template has been tested on:
- Linux OS
Configuration
Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.
Setup
Install snmpd agent on Linux OS, enable SNMPv2.
Make sure access to UCD-SNMP-MIB is allowed from Zabbix server/proxy host, since,
by default, snmpd (for example, in Ubuntu) limits access to basic system information only:
rocommunity public default -V systemonly
Make sure you change that in order to read metrics of UCD-SNMP-MIB and UCD-DISKIO-MIB. Please refer to the documentation:
http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/Vacm
You can also try to use snmpconf:
http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:snmpd_configuration
Change {$SNMP_COMMUNITY} on the host level in Zabbix.

| Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}): Duplex status | MIB: EtherLike-MIB The current mode of operation of the MAC entity. 'unknown' indicates that the current duplex mode could not be determined. Management control of the duplex mode is accomplished through the MAU MIB. When an interface does not support autonegotiation, or when autonegotiation is not enabled, the duplex mode is controlled using ifMauDefaultType. When autonegotiation is supported and enabled, duplex mode is controlled using ifMauAutoNegAdvertisedBits. In either case, the currently operating duplex mode is reflected both in this object and in ifMauType. Note that this object provides redundant information with ifMauType. Normally, redundant objects are discouraged. However, in this instance, it allows a management application to determine the duplex status of an interface without having to know every possible value of ifMauType. This was felt to be sufficiently valuable to justify the redundancy. Reference: [IEEE 802.3 Std.], 30.3.1.1.32,aDuplexStatus. |
