Sensors Monitoring with SNMP
Hardware health sensors can be monitored using the SecurePlatform SNMP monitoring daemon.
SNMP traps can be set to fire once an OID value is in breach of a configurable threshold.
The sensorInfo MIB branch is 1.3.6.1.4.1.2620.1.6.7.8. The information it contains is detailed below.
Data is available in the form of 3 SNMP tables:
