Title: net-snmp no longer descibes system as OPNsense but FreeBSD
Post by: neal.schulz on August 09, 2018, 01:07:10 am

Hi,
This is not super urgent, but a nice to have fixed. We upgraded the snmp plugin to the net-snmp version as the bsnmp plugin is deprecated. We did also switch to using snmp V3 from snmp V2.
I notice the system is now being described as FreeBSD as opposed to OPNsense which means our monitoring systems (Observium and LIbreNMS) now identify them as servers (FreeBSD) by default as opposed to firewalls.
Is this expected behavior or something wrong with our systems?
Regards,
Neal

From which OID do you expect this value?

Hi,
See below the responses from the old system and then the new...

sysDescr.0 = STRING: OPNsense hostname 18.1.13-a2cd7c69f OPNsense FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p11 amd64

sysDescr.0 = STRING: FreeBSD hostname 11.1-RELEASE-p11 FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p11  21b4c8ea1d5(stable/18.7) amd64

The OID is .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 I believe.

Neal
