How to install & configure NRDP on openwrt client

[gulfamwani]

Hi,
Actually we have launched Naguos xi in AWS and our requirement is to monitor our Openwrt devices which are on private network.


As for as passive agent like NRDP is concerned, I was following below link http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nrdp ... erview.pdf I try to install and configure it but there is no clear idea how to configure it in client as I already told about my requirement we are using OpenWrt devices which are on private network.

Can you please help me to install and configure this passive agent (NRDP) in OpenWrt.

I don't believe NRDS can run on openwrt devices, as it needs a considerable amount of space for the plugins, requires cron to be installed, etc.

I would strongly suggest monitoring the openwrt devices via SNMP

Thanks for this info.

Please help to insatll and configure SNMP on openwrt or if you have any Doc on this please share it with me.

Thanks..

I am thinking you could possibly get it to run on openwrt (x86) if you met the following requirements.

[*]Enough Storage
[*]Python
[*]Bash Shell
[*]Crontab
[*]Perl

That sounds like a whole lot of work IMHO, not sure if it would be worth it, especially since you could use SNMP and be done with it.

To find out what is available, do a walk of all available MIB's using snmpwalk.

When you find the MIB's needing monitoring, use check_snmp.

Code: Select all

Usage:check_snmp -H <ip_address> -o <OID> [-w warn_range] [-c crit_range]
[-C community] [-s string] [-r regex] [-R regexi] [-t timeout] [-e retries]
[-l label] [-u units] [-p port-number] [-d delimiter] [-D output-delimiter]
[-m miblist] [-P snmp version] [-L seclevel] [-U secname] [-a authproto]
