V20 - Add SNMPD and HTOP

[WifxMain]

Hello,

If I listened to the webinar correctly, changing repositories is not supported.
So how is it possible to add snmpd, which we use to monitor customer PBXs, and htop, which is very useful for diagnostics?

Best regards,
Marc

Hi,

Both packages are already available in the 3CX V18 repository. They will be included in the V20 one as well.

Will installing snmpd from repository will void support?
As far as I remember installing anything on a 3CX vanilla setup, support was refused in the past.

Note that 3Cx is tested and supported with the 3CX ISO on a dedicated machine.
Any 3rd party is not supported. You can proceed with your own risk.

Are there any plans to support snmpd and officially be deployed with 3cx linux iso?

Requires: Version 20.0 Update 1 (Build 731 Release)
The below will install the default snmpd.conf configuration which you can then modify if needed.

Install SNMP:

sudo apt install snmpd

Update Firewall:
Edit /etc/nftables.conf
Look for the below configuration

# Other services specific
udp dport { 137,138 } counter accept comment "Accept NetBIOS"
tcp dport { 139,445 } counter accept comment "Accept TCP/IP MS Networking"

Add the line:

udp dport { 161 } counter accept comment "Accept SNMPD"

Config will look like this:

# Other services specific
udp dport { 137,138 } counter accept comment "Accept NetBIOS"
udp dport { 161 } counter accept comment "Accept SNMPD"
tcp dport { 139,445 } counter accept comment "Accept TCP/IP MS Networking"

Reload Firewall:

service nftables reload

Enable Service:

systemctl enable snmpd
