SNMP credentials

[uclara]

Looks very. interesting, but where to configure auth information. (e.g. for. SNMP v1, V2 and V3 credentials)?

Hey, you can set the SNMP version and community with the flags or in the config. Currently we don't support SNMP v3.
Example:

$ thola identify --ip 10.204.2.90 --snmp-community public --snmp-version 2c

Device: 
  Class: ceraos/ip10
  Properties: 
    Vendor: Ceragon
    Model: IP-10
    SerialNumber: 00:0A:25:25:77:67
    OSVersion: 2.9.25-1

By default Thola tries to connect to your device with the community public and with version 1 and 2c.

Tanks for the information, are you planing to add also other vendors. (e.g. Unify)?

[TheFireMike]

Yeah sure, we're constantly adding support for new devices. If you need support for specific devices, you're welcome to add them by writing a device class file and creating a pull request!

[uclara]

Hi, could you provide a link to a howto to generate such a device class file?

Currently we're working on our documentation (docs.thola.io), but unfortunately the chapter about the device classes isn't ready yet.
If you don't want to wait till it's ready you can take a look at our existing device classes and try to write one yourself. Our goal was to make them as easy and self-explanatory as possible, but if you have specific questions or need further help do not hesitate to contact us/me!

Hey @uclara,
We just updated our documentation (docs.thola.io). It now contains a description of how to generate device class files / add a new device. I hope this will help you
