Extensions 2.0 SNMP using query to change variables

rdinis — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 08:14:48 GMT

Hi all,

Im using the SNMP extension 2.0 to collect metrics of devices in different rooms.
Each device have a hostname - sys.name - with the id of the room and I would like to collect the device name and transform the variable to become a tag or property, but i need to remove some chars in string.

snmp:

- group: device-group

interval:

minutes: 1

dimensions:

- key: sys.name ### ABC0123456789

value: oid:1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0
- key: device.room
query: # device.room = sys.name -> 1234

I would like to know if its possible to change the string value of keys in any way possible.

@rdinis Do these entities show up as 'Hosts'? if so, you could leverage host naming rules and target the detected name but then use regex to parse data out of it. I use Regex 101 to test and formulate regex for naming and tagging. I hope this helps 🙂
