SNMP Simulation Data

The snmpsim-data package contains simulation data for snmpsim - free and open-source SNMP agent simulator.

The package is distributed under 2-clause BSD license.

Download

SNMP simulation data can be downloaded as a Python package from PyPI.

Installation

Just run:

$ pyenv local 3.12
$ pip install pipenv
$ pipenv install snmpsim-data
$ pipenv run setup-snmpsim-data ./data

This installs snmpsim package as a dependency, and copy simulation data into the data directory.

How to Use Simulation Data

Invoke snmpsim-command-responder and point it to a directory with simulation data:

$ pipenv run snmpsim-command-responder --data-dir=data/UPS --agent-udpv4-endpoint=127.0.0.1:1024

This allows the simulator to read the specific files and emulate UPS devices.

Simulation Data Format

Simulation data is stored in simple plain-text files having OID|TYPE|VALUE format:

$ cat public.snmprec
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0|4|Linux 2.6.25.5-smp SMP Tue Jun 19 14:58:11 CDT 2007 i686
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0|6|1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0|67|233425120
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.6.2|4x|00127962f940
1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22.1.3.2.192.21.54.7|64x|c3dafe61
...

Simulator maps query parameters like SNMP community names, SNMPv3 contexts or IP addresses onto data files paths relative to the data directory.
