danielredoak / logstash-snmpout Goto Github PK

I'll admit I don't know enough about SNMP as I probably should before I ask this question.
That being said, if this plugin is for sending SNMP traps, in my case to Zenoss, does having the ability to specify MIB files on the agent/sending side of the trap give me any benefit?

I do see that the parameter for MIB files is optional, so maybe for my uses, I just don't even bother with them?

How to proper install "logstash-snmpout"?
What additional software is needed?
What are the differences in using this module on linux and win32?

Hi Daniel

The usage docs (both in code and the readme) improperly refer to the plugin as snmpwalk while I believe it should be snmptrap.

Also - usage shows using yamilmibdir as a parameter when the actual token is yamlmibdir (no extra i in yaml).

I'm having some issues with the plugin - but have it working. Is this the best way to ask questions?

Thanks,
Chris
