This script provides an example of how to leverage snmp-server extension on Arista EOS devices to create a custom set of OIDs to expose counters from show vlan counters
It leverages pass_persist module to create a new SNMP structure available for your monitoring system.
SNMP structure generated by script use following template:
{{ OID_BASE }}.{{ VLAN_ID }}.{{ OID_DESCRIPTION | OID_VALUE }}.{{ OID_TRANSLATION[counter] }}
- Copy this script to /mnt/flash as vlanCounters.py
admin@eos# bash
$ cd /mnt/flash
$ vi /mnt/flash/vlanCounters.py
$ sudo chmod +x vlanCounters.py- Copy snmp_passpersist to
/mnt/flash
admin@eos# bash
$ cd /mnt/flash
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nagius/snmp_passpersist/master/snmp_passpersist.py- Enable management api (script uses a unix socket)
management api http-commands
protocol unix-socket
no shutdown
- Enable Hardware counters for vlan
hardware counter feature vlan out
hardware counter feature vlan in
- Configure SNMP-SERVER extension
snmp-server extension .1.3.6.1.3.53.9 flash:/vlanCounters.py
- Re-configure SNMP-SERVER extension when script is updated
no snmp-server extension .1.3.6.1.3.53.9 flash:/vlanCounters.py
snmp-server extension .1.3.6.1.3.53.9 flash:/vlanCounters.py
SNMP service MUST be configured on your EOS device with at least one community.
From your EOS device:
s7289(config)#show snmp mib walk .1.3.6.1.3.53.9
