Create alarms with lookup

Checkout branches

git checkout origin/osp-snmp-trap .

Description

Note

The complete example can be checkout out with git checkout origin/example-snmp-trap-lookup .

In this tutorial you will learn how : * to create an alarm from lookup files (csv with ; as separator).

@startuml
skinparam backgroundColor transparent
package "root/rules/" {
    [main.rules] as main
    [functions/create-alarms.rules] as func
}

package "lookups/" {
    [example.lookup] as lookup
}

package "modules/snmp-trap/snmp-trap-1" {
    [module.resources] as ressources
}


        node snmp as "osp-snmp-trap"

snmp -[#dodgerblue]-> ressources :<size:11><color:#dodgerblue>****
ressources -[#dodgerblue]-> main :<size:11><color:#dodgerblue> **load rules**
ressources -[#dodgerblue]-> func :<size:11><color:#dodgerblue> **load rules**
ressources -[#dodgerblue]-> lookup :<size:11><color:#dodgerblue> **load lookup**

Steps

1. Create the parsing rules

All traps will be analyzed in one Lua file : main.rules. From this file you can then do the trap-to-alarm conversion according to your needs.

Note

It is not mandatory but highly recommended to divide the Lua logic into several files. This is what we will do in this example.

Create the root/rules/main.rules file.

/root/rules/main.rules

function main (trap, alarm)
    log("WARN", "A new TRAP is received")
    print_trap_info(trap)
    fill_alarm_from_trap(trap, alarm)
    print_alarm_info(alarm)
end

Create one function in another file (root/rules/functions/create-alarm.rules) to fill the alarms.

/root/rules/functions/create-alarm.rules

function fill_alarm_from_trap(trap, alarm)
    -- Simple lookup return nil if not found
    alarm.summary = lookup("example", "summary")

    -- Lookup with default value return with both case append.
    alarm.severity = lookup("example", "severity", {"root.alarms.severities.exist"}) .. "-" .. lookup("file-1", "severity-not-exit", {"root.alarms.severities.not-exist"})

    -- Lookup with index of csv.
    alarm.source = lookup("example", "source", 1)

    -- Lookup with index of csv and default value.
    alarm.serial = lookup("example", "serial", 1, "default") .. "-" .. lookup("file-1", "serial-not-exist", 1, "default")
end

3. Test from any linux device

Note

By default SNMP-TRAP uses port 162, but it is possible that this port is already used by another service. In this case, you can change the port published in the module.service configuration.

1. Show logs from a console

docker service logs --raw -f osp-stack-1_modules_snmp-trap_snmp-trap-1

5. Send one test TRAP (here using net-snmp from a linux host, but any other trap sender tool could have been used)

snmptrap -v 2c -c public[STACK-IP] ''1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.2.3.0.1 1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.2.3.2.1 i 123456

6. Logs must show something like
