Snmpbuilder is an addon for zabbix to help users use SNMP OIDS as zabbix items (data sources) This tool was originaly written by giapnguyen ( see https://github.com/giapnguyen/snmpbuilder) Later Sire adopted it for zabbix-2.0.0 I've made some minor changes and installed it on zabbox-2.0.2 from original README (from giapnguen): I write the tool because I'm tired in create SNMP items for zabbix. To create a useful zabbix's template for SNMP devices, I used to open a MIB browser to get correct OID then fill the zabbix's item forms. It'm so boring when create a long list of items :-( . There is a first attempt of work out this problem, zload_snmpwalk http://zabbix.com/wiki/howto/monitor/snmp/zload_snmpwalk. But I rather a GUI tool. So why just make one? SNMP builder is a add-in for Zabbix. It provide browse MIB for values and informations, automatically convert into Zabbix items and insert them into a template.

Define some variables: # Zabbix frontend document-root # (for ubuntu it is /var/www/zabbix): zabbix_frontend=/var/www/zabbix # Your favorite directory for downloads (your current dir for ex.) your_src=$PWD # Downloaded tar filename (also directory later) dist_name=`basename atimonin-snmpbuilder-* .tar.gz` # # #3. untar needed files tar xvzf $distname.tar.gz #4. become an apache user (www-data for ubuntu, if not, you may see it from # ps aux|grep apache), it'll ask you for your password if you have appropriate permissions sudo -s -u www-data <<END_OF_SCRIPT #5. install images for snmpbuilder in zabbix frontend root directory cd $zabbix_frontend tar xvzf $your_src/$distname/snmpbuilder-2.0_imgs.tar.gz #6. patch zabbix frontend patch -p1 < $your_src/$distname/snmpbuilder-2.0.patch #7. copy snmpbuilder files to frontend dir cp -r $your_src/$distname/zabbix/* . #8. if you need russian translation (if not, skip this step) # patch .po file and rebuild .mo patch -p1 < $your_src/snmpbuilder-for-2.0.2/snmpbuilder-2.0-ru.patch cd locale ./make_mo.sh #9.
