Context

We currently use the Centreon Huawei SNMP plugin for switch monitoring.
However, several important metrics available via Huawei MIBs are not yet covered by the existing plugin.

We would like to request an enhancement to include the following additional checks, based on the MIBs listed below and verified via working internal scripts.

 

Device Information

Vendor: Huawei
Model: S5720 series (tested on S5720-52X-LI-AC)
SNMP version: v2c

 

Checks Requested

Check Description Example Output MIB / OID (symbolic)
Faultlight Detects hardware fault indicator light OK: Stack slot 1 Light Status OK HUAWEI-ENTITY-EXTENT-MIB::hwEntityFaultLight.OID
Image version Retrieves current system image version OK: Stack slot 1 Version: V200R021C00 HUAWEI-SYS-MAN-MIB::hwSysImageVersion.INDEX
Max CPU Reports maximum CPU usage since last boot OK: Stack slot 1: Max CPU: 45 HUAWEI-ENTITY-EXTENT-MIB::hwEntityCpuMaxUsage.OID
PoE available power Displays total PoE power available per slot OK: Stack slot 1: PoE Power Available: 155000 mW HUAWEI-POE-MIB::hwPoeSlotAvailablePower.STACKSLOT
PSU status Checks PSU operational state and total power OK: Stack slot 1: Power Status OK 370W PSUs HUAWEI-ENTITY-EXTENT-MIB::hwEntityPwrState.STACKSLOT.PSUSLOT
Storage/VLAN consistency Verifies VLANs defined on device against expected configuration WARNING: Not all VLANs defined or with wrong name: VLAN10 , VLAN20 HUAWEI-L2VLAN-MIB::hwL2VlanDescr

 

Supporting Files

  1. Full SNMP walk of the enterprise branch:
snmpwalk -ObentU -v2c -c <REDACTED> X.X.X.X .1.3.6.1.4.1 > huawei_switch.snmpwalk
  1. All relevant Huawei MIB files, including:
  • HUAWEI-ENTITY-EXTENT-MIB
  • HUAWEI-SYS-MAN-MIB
  • HUAWEI-POE-MIB
  • HUAWEI-L2VLAN-MIB

 

The list of file are present in the GitHub Issue: https://github.com/centreon/centreon-plugins/issues/5811

 

Summary

We request an enhancement of the existing Huawei SNMP plugin to include:

  • Faultlight status
  • Image version
  • Max CPU usage
  • PoE available power
  • PSU power and status
  • VLAN consistency validation

 

All OIDs have been verified on live Huawei devices and are stable across multiple firmware versions.

Thank you.
