Hello all,

I installed the 7.2.5 Zabbix proxy and was reading more in the status log on OPNsense. It mentions the following:

Message from net-snmp-5.9.4_6,1:

--
**** This port installs snmpd, header files and libraries but does not
     start snmpd by default.
     If you want to auto-start snmpd and snmptrapd, add the following to
     /etc/rc.conf:

   snmpd_enable="YES"
   snmpd_flags="-a"
   snmpd_conffile="/usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf /etc/snmpd.conf"
   snmptrapd_enable="YES"
   snmptrapd_flags="-a -p /var/run/snmptrapd.pid"

**** You may also specify the following make variables:

   NET_SNMP_SYS_CONTACT="zi@FreeBSD.org"
   NET_SNMP_SYS_LOCATION="USA"
   DEFAULT_SNMP_VERSION=3
   NET_SNMP_MIB_MODULES="host smux mibII/mta_sendmail ucd-snmp/diskio"
   NET_SNMP_LOGFILE=/var/log/snmpd.log
   NET_SNMP_PERSISTENTDIR=/var/net-snmp

     to define default values (or to override the defaults).  To avoid being
     prompted during the configuration process, you should (minimally) define
     the first two variables. (NET_SNMP_SYS_*)

     You may also define the following to avoid all interactive configuration:


Does this mean I could use SNMP monitoring for OPNsense and get additional information, like the services that run on top of the firewall? Has anyone used this? Has anyone used Zabbix and defined an updated template to monitor services like DNS, DHCP, and others?

Thanks,
Steve
