Datadog-SNMP-MIB-Parser

Converts a MIB file (in PySNMP format) to a yaml file that can be used by Datadog's SNMP agent integration: https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/snmp/

Pre-Requisites

MIB Format

Datadog SNMP agent integration requires all MIB files to be in PySNMP format. The agent comes packaged with a list of MIBs that can be used out-of-the-box (in Linux environments this can be found here: /opt/datadog-agent/embedded/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pysnmp_mibs)

If looking to use your own MIB that is not already packaged with the Datadog agent follow the steps in the following documentation to convert to PySNMP format: https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/snmp/#use-your-own-mib

Once your MIB is in PySNMP format you can use this tool to parse the MIB and convert it into a usable yaml file.

Steps for Parsing MIB

1. git clone https://github.com/adulmovits/Datadog-SNMP-MIB-Parser.git
2. Run python parse.py
   This script will:
   a. Prompt you for the location/name of the MIB file
   b. Parse OIDs from MIB file
   c. Creates a file end.yaml that contains the contents of begin.yaml with the parsed OIDs appended to the end of it
3. Rename end.yaml to conf.yaml
4. Place conf.yaml in the agent's /conf.d/snmp.d/ directory
5. Edit the conf.yaml to include information about your SNMP device: hostname, port, community string, etc.
6. Remove unwanted OIDs from conf.yaml and OIDs that don't return gauges, counters, integers, or double values (ie. strings)
7. Restart the Datadog Agent
