Cacti adds monitoring remote Linux host based on the SNMP service

Cacti adds monitoring remote Linux host based on the SNMP service

After Cacti is installed, only the local host can be monitored by default. To monitor Linux and Windows Remote clients, you must install the SNMP service on the remote client host to capture data through SNMP, the Cacti server uses RRDtool to generate chart information to monitor remote client hosts.

The following describes how to add remote Linux and Windows host monitoring services through Cacti.

1. Add and monitor Linux Hosts

Cacti server: 192.168.1.20.( CentOS 6.7)
Cacti client: 192.168.1.21 (CentOS 6.5)
Step 1: The client installs NET-SNMP Software
[Root @ www ~] # Yum-y install net-snmp-devel net-snmp-utils

Step 2: edit the SNMP configuration file snmpd. conf
[Root @ www ~] # Vim/etc/snmp/snmpd. conf
View systemview embedded ded. 1.3.6.1.2.1
View systemview embedded ded. 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1

Syslocation 192.168.1.21; Add the local IP Address
Syscontact Root root@huangmingming.cn; email receiving

Step 3: synchronize system time
Synchronization time
[Root @ www ~] # Ntpdate time.nist.gov
[Root @ www ~] # Cp/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai/etc/localtime

Step 4: Start the SNMP service

[Root @ www ~] # Service snmpd start
[Root @ www ~] # Chkconfig snmpd on

Step 5: Add a client host on the Cacti Server
Cacti Server web Settings, add a Host (Devices --> Add --> Description --> Hostname --> Host Template --> Number of Collection Threads --> SNMP Version --> Create --- * Create Graphs for this Host --> select information to be monitored) --> Save
Description: Host Description
Hostname: Host IP Address
Host Template: Host monitoring Template
Number of Collection Threads: Number of concurrent polling Threads

Add the added host to Graph Trees.

[Root @ sh ~] #/Usr/local/spine/bin/spine
SPINE: Using spine config file [/etc/spine. conf]
SPINE: Version 0.8.8f starting
SPINE: Time: 0.1440 s, Threads: 1, Hosts: 3

Wait for 5 minutes to see the generated chart information
