Upload Snmp Agents
A Seed file can be uploaded in two formats, a comma separated file, or a tab separated file.
CSV - The user can provide csv files of three different syntaxes
- Basic Agent - ipAddress, name
- Standard agent - ipAddress, name, snmpCommunityOrUserV3Name, snmpPort, snmpVersion, [collectorName, pollingPeriod, capability, doNotDiscoverCapability]
- Full agent - name, ipAddress, snmpPort, transportProtocol, timeout, retries, snmpVersion, snmpCommunityOrUserV3Name, snmpV3AuthenticationProtocol, snmpV3AuthenticationPassword, snmpV3PrivacyProtocol, snmpV3PrivacyPassword, devtype, onFailTryWith, [collectorName, pollingPeriod, capability, doNotDiscoverCapability]
TAB - The user can provide a tab separated '.txt' file with key value pairs of the attributes. For example-
- name=name1 snmpPort=161 devtype=Router ipAddress=192.168.0.1 capability=ipsla snmpCommunityOrUserV3Name=commString1 collectorName=snmp-collector For providing multiple collectorNames or capabilities two formats are supported a. Space separated values. example - collectorName=collector-a collector-b b. Duplicated keys. example - collectorName=collector-a colectorName=collector-b The keys supported are specified in the VMware docs TCSA web page.
The attributes enclosed in [] are non-mandatory attributes and can be skipped.
