Motorola Canopy

[adjacent]

Anyone out there have a template for Motorola Canopy products? I'd love to be able to graph registed SM's, jitter, and RSSI.

OK, I've poked around and haven't found much. We are a WISP in South Carolina and it would be great to have templates for Cacti that will help us quickly set the monitoring for all of the Motorola Canopy products and SmartBridges products we have in the field. I am not very familiar with SNMP or Cacti yet, and am looking for someone that could work together with me to code the templates. Send me an email if you are interested.

Here's another hot template for all you WISP's out there using Motorola Canopy radios. This is a pair of host templates for Canopy Subscriber Modules and Canopy Access Points. (Backhauls are just a variation of these, use accordingly.) They graph RSSI and Jitter for SM's and Registered SM's for AP's and poll standard SNMP Interface stats.

I tested and wrote them with cacti 0.8.5a, please let me know of any issues.

Hijacking this post to update Templates to Cacti087b. Tested against 8.2.2 software level

I can't seem to get the template uploaded. I'm using cacti-0.8.5a running on RH 7.3. This is a fresh install of the cacti software. I have it installed on the box that I'm currently running MRTG on to poll my Canopy and Smartbridge radios. I created my own template and I get this back when I poll the device (like it's not responding to SNMP):

I'm using the following generic OIDS:
1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.3.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.3.0

The strings I'm using in MRTG are as follows:
Target[White.RSSI]: 1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.2.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.2.0:Canopy@10.10.150
.237:::::2

1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.3.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.2.2.3.0:Canopy@10.10.15
0.237:::::2

I've verified that the community string and version are proper for the radio, as I'm using the same ones that MRTG is using and it gets the data just fine.

I've tried uploading the template from 3 different machines, both via text and the xml file. I click save and it just returns me to the upload screen, with no errors and the template never imports.

Just updated the scripts to include more functionality. Now graphing the following:

AP
---
RegCount,
GPS Sync Status,
Temp.,
Ethernet Link Status,
Traffic (In/Out)

SM
---
RSSI,
Jitter,
Power Level (dBm),
Temp.,
Session Status,
Ethernet Link Status,
Traffic (In/Out)

To use, just place the perl scripts in the <path_cacti>/scripts/ directory and import the host templates.

Hello,

Just loaded the scripts, but i cannot graph ethernet statistics,

any help on this ?

[adjacent]

For ethernet stats make sure to put in the correct community string in cacti, and set SNMP version 2. Cacti actually polls the interface for ethernet stats, and not my script.

Cacti will have two options for the interface. The internal IP used by the Canopy system, in the 192.168.101 range, and the RF IP used to admin the device. I select the RF IP and graph this, but I imagine the other works also.

[mclerc]

I'm having the same problem as abdock. I have imported and loaded your perl scripts/xml the ones you posted most recently and they seem to work fine, but cacti will not hit the ethernet ports to do data graphic/usage.

I'm getting this error when I hit "Verbose Query" in my device list (AP btw)


Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in /home/iwispr/public_html/cacti/lib/data_query.php on line 490

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/iwispr/public_html/cacti/lib/data_query.php:490) in /home/iwispr/public_html/cacti/host.php on line 75

edit:: Also, I'm using latest version for linux of cacti, 0.8.6c w/ all patches done to it. I've notice too that the Registered SM count and Temperatures are graphing, but no data is being reported in it....

Any ideas?
Thanks alot!

I've sent a note to the development team to look into this.

Just to make sure I'm on the page page, you are talking about the "SNMP - Interface Statistics" data query, right?

Either way, it looks like the XML file associated with this data query is either missing or corrupt. Check to make sure you have an 'interface.xml' file under Cacti's 'resource/snmp_queries' directory. You may want to restore this file from a fresh installation just to make sure.

Are you getting the same error when trying to add the interface statistics data query to other devices?[/quote]

[mclerc]

After I import those XMLs, it gives me that error everytime I try to add a new Interface Data Query to a device, even if its not a Canopy device... But if I add the non-canopy device before I import the XMLs, it works fine....

Maybe I'm importing them wrong? I'm using Import Templates/ Browse & Select/ Upload on both.

Thanks

edit: also, I've checked the interface.xml against the original and they're both 100% exactly the same.

edit2: Even after i go through all the templates and delete everything that says motorola, it still gives me those errors........... hmm

[TheWitness]

Sounds like a Canopy snmpd issue. Check their web site for updates.

I get these warning messages everytime I try to add a device to Cacti, when I click "Verbose Query" in a device edit properties (Associated Data Queries) and it only happens after I import the XMLs posted above. I've been emailing the author of these XMLs for the past few days and he tells me it works perfect on his systems.

I only get these errors when I import the XMLs. But everything else with his XMLs work perfect, it hits my Canopy devices, and brings back and graphs all their information..... but Cacti won't do the SNMP Query so I can monitor bandwidth usage.

This is really the only problem I'm running into at this point. I have found and fixed a few initial problems with his XML and it's incompatibility with my server so it gets the information fine now, but cacti after importing his XML won't check the ethernet data usage anymore....

[mclerc]

Fixed. Upon importing his XML it modified the path to the interface.xml (as well as his own perl script... atleast this is how my serverside interpreted it)

To fix the interface graphs, I went to Data Queries under Collection Methods, and went into SNMP Interface Statistics... and noticed the path to the interface.xml had the ;gamp;cacti_path;gmap; thing too, instead of < > like I had with your XMLs and the Canopy pathnames. I fixed that and it lets me collect Ethernet bandwidth stats now perfect, with no problem.

[TheWitness]

Looks like a template import/export problem. Please state your environment and I will forward to the author for interpretation.

Thanks,
