You can extend the functionality of Flowmon appliances by using several modules for various tasks like our network behavioral analysis system (Flowmon ADS), application performance monitoring (Flowmon APM), and others (refer to https://www.flowmon.com for further details).
The Flowmon device can be monitored using these systems with pre-installed agents. The configuration of these agents is performed under the flowmon user or using the sudo command.
SNMP Daemon
The Flowmon device is delivered with a pre-installed SNMP daemon for easy remote device monitoring. The configuration file snmpd.conf is located in the /etc/snmp directory and can be modified by the flowmon user (locally or using ssh). To apply changes in this file run the following command:
sudo /sbin/service snmpd restart
If your modifications of the snmpd.conf file could influence the client's connection to the Flowmon Probe (especially the SNMP version and community string), you may need to also change the source SNMP connection settings on the target Flowmon Collector (if SNMP is used for retireving the source status information). For more information refer to the following section: Sources.
Zabbix Agent
The Flowmon device is delivered with a pre-installed Zabbix agent. This module provides easy remote monitoring using a centralized monitoring system.
Zabbix agent configuration file is located in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf. To apply the changes, restart the agent as follows.
sudo /sbin/service zabbix-agent restart
