Popup with snmp device info in weathermap

[mgb]

For Weathermaps I made a small script to display device snmp info when we do mouseover. Put the script info.php in the weathermap dir and add the following to the NODE part for your devices in weathermap.

NOTES <iframe width=\"400px\" height=\"350px\" src=\"/plugins/weathermap/info.php?node={node:this:cactiid}\"> </iframe>

replace {node:this:cactiid} with the cactiid of the device. The device will be polled by the script for its information.

If you add

OVERLIBGRAPH images/cisco-6509.PNG

to the Node aswell you can add pictures of you're device in the same window.
make sure you've got an image with your device in the images directory of weathermap and point to it.

I like this I've been trying to figure out what to have on mouseover of my switches.

I added a few Items which someone else may or may not find useful. But are very useful in my environment.

Count of DHCP Snooping Bindings
Count of Dot1x Authenticated Users

Interface Count with Counts of Up/down ifoperstatus (This is So-So in my environment where every Switch has at least 20 SVI's)

5 Min CPU

Boot Image

Hardware (This oid works well on 3750s and 6500's(IOS))

Also I reduced the font to 60%

hmm....
getting the "SNMP not in use" message on the pop-up. seems like it is not pulling the snmp values from within cacti.
if I am in /var/www/html/cacti/plugins/weathermap, then line 3

Code: Select all

chdir('../../');

should put me in /var/www/html/cacti
then the include statements should work then....


scratching my head on this one.

I was getting that by cutting and pasting the example above, On my setup I had to use

Code: Select all

NOTES <iframe width=\"400px\" height=\"400px\" src=\"/cacti/plugins/weathermap/info.php?node={node:this:cacti_id}\"> </iframe>

node:this:cacti_id not node:this:cactiid

My Apache Configuration also necessitated adding /cacti/ to the path

Weird, cactiid is working for me. I know it was quick and dirty and frankly for me it was a quick hack to get something working. Will look into the script to make it a bit more versatile.

The fix for me was to add a set config for each node

Code: Select all

NODE 6506A_core
        LABEL 6506A
        SET cacti_id 14
        LABELOUTLINECOLOR none
        OVERLIBCAPTION South Shownet1 6506A Core switch handles odd numbered vlans and subnets
        NOTES <iframe width=\"400px\" height=\"350px\" src=\"/cacti/plugins/weathermap/info.php?node={node:this:cacti_id}\"> </iframe>
        OVERLIBGRAPH images/6500.png
        ICON images/6500.png
        LABELOFFSET 10 40
        POSITION 144 118

Your really just defining/setting a variable so there really is no right/wrong way, I have cacti_id because I copied Howie's example but cactiid,idcacti,foo work just as well as long as the node:this:foo matches the SET foo.


egarnel if your not using 0.96 and templates or specifying it as default then

Code: Select all

NOTES <iframe width=\"400px\" height=\"350px\" src=\"/cacti/plugins/weathermap/info.php?node=14\"> </iframe> 

without the set command makes for a cleaner config.

[egarnel]

I tried that initially, but it did not seem to work. I will try it again on another map soon

[Howie]

The only exception is if you are using poller_ouput/rrd or dsstats, and then weathermap will set some of those variables for you (including cacti_host_id)

Works great! Thanks for the post...

Glad to help,

Weathermap starts to get better than WUG

Hi
I've installed it on a windows 2003 server , but although I can see the snmp info, the pop up disappears quickly, (the same happens on IE 8 an Mozilla).


my cacti is 0.8.7.d (windows 2003 server)
my weathermap 0.95b.

Please could you check it?.

Thanks

Made my version with WM 0.96a. Not sure if all works in previous versions.
Displaying of the script is done by the javascript part of weathermap. You could try to replace info.php with a simple html page to make sure it's not the script that is the problem.
