# Generic by SNMP

### Macros used

|Name|Description|Default|
|----|-----------|-------|
|{$SNMP.TIMEOUT}|
Time interval for the SNMP availability trigger.
|`5m`|
|{$ICMP_LOSS_WARN}|
Warning threshold of ICMP packet loss in %.
|`20`|
|{$ICMP_RESPONSE_TIME_WARN}|
Warning threshold of the average ICMP response time in seconds.
|`0.15`|

### Items

|Name|Description|Type|Key and additional info|
|----|-----------|----|-----------------------|
|Uptime (network)|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

Time (in hundredths of a second) since the network management portion of the system was last re-initialized.
|SNMP agent|system.net.uptime[sysUpTime.0]
**Preprocessing**

- 
Custom multiplier: `0.01`

|
|Uptime (hardware)|
MIB: HOST-RESOURCES-MIB

The amount of time since this host was last initialized. Note that this is different from sysUpTime in the SNMPv2-MIB [RFC1907] because sysUpTime is the uptime of the network management portion of the system.
|SNMP agent|system.hw.uptime[hrSystemUptime.0]
**Preprocessing**

- 
Check for not supported value: `any error`

⛔️Custom on fail: Set value to: `0`

- 
Custom multiplier: `0.01`

|
|SNMP traps (fallback)|
The item is used to collect all SNMP traps unmatched by other snmptrap items
|SNMP trap|snmptrap.fallback|
|System location|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

Physical location of the node (e.g., `equipment room`, `3rd floor`). If not provided, the value is a zero-length string.
|SNMP agent|system.location[sysLocation.0]
**Preprocessing**

- 
Discard unchanged with heartbeat: `12h`

|
|System contact details|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

The textual identification of the contact person for this managed node, together with information on how to contact this person. If no contact information is known, the value is the zero-length string.
|SNMP agent|system.contact[sysContact.0]
**Preprocessing**

- 
Discard unchanged with heartbeat: `12h`

|
|System object ID|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

The vendor's authoritative identification of the network management subsystem contained in the entity. This value is allocated within the SMI enterprises subtree (1.3.6.1.4.1) and provides an easy and unambiguous means for determining`what kind of box' is being managed. For example, if vendor`Flintstones, Inc.' was assigned the subtree1.3.6.1.4.1.4242, it could assign the identifier 1.3.6.1.4.1.4242.1.1 to its `Fred Router'.</p>|SNMP agent|system.objectid[sysObjectID.0]<p>**Preprocessing**</p><ul><li><p>Discard unchanged with heartbeat: `12h`

|
|System name|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

An administratively-assigned name for this managed node.By convention, this is the node's fully-qualified domain name. If the name is unknown, the value is the zero-length string.
|SNMP agent|system.name
**Preprocessing**

- 
Discard unchanged with heartbeat: `12h`

|
|System description|
MIB: SNMPv2-MIB

A textual description of the entity. This value should

include the full name and version identification of the system's hardware type, software operating-system, and

networking software.
|SNMP agent|system.descr[sysDescr.0]
**Preprocessing**

- 
Discard unchanged with heartbeat: `12h`

|
|SNMP agent availability|
Availability of SNMP checks on the host. The value of this item corresponds to availability icons in the host list.

Possible values:

0 - not available

1 - available

2 - unknown
|Zabbix internal|zabbix[host,snmp,available]|
|ICMP ping|
The host accessibility by ICMP ping.

0 - ICMP ping fails;

1 - ICMP ping successful.
|Simple check|icmpping|
|ICMP loss|
The percentage of lost packets.
|Simple check|icmppingloss|
|ICMP response time|
The ICMP ping response time (in seconds).
|Simple check|icmppingsec|
