This library offers that, and way more exposing **the** SNMP library - `Net-SNMP` - to PHP! If you hated SNMP I hope this library can convince you to stop ;) Basics ------ [](#basics) ### What's SNMP? [](#whats-snmp) SNMP is a networking protocol allowing for information exchange between hosts, think about it like a REST from 1990s. While the protocol is certainly dated it's still used everywhere... and thus available on almost all network-enabled hardware. Nowadays the SNMP is used mostly to pull metrics (e.g. list of devices connected to a WiFi access point, or free disk space on a server)... but nobody said it cannot be used to control [your coffee pot](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2325.html)! ### So, what are MIBs? [](#so-what-are-mibs) MIB, or *management information base*, is a collection of textual files containing description of the data present on a remote system. Without these files most of the information is just a meaningless set of numbers and strings. Even worse, without MIBs you cannot request `sysUpTime.0` but `1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0`... yikes! MIBs installed on a system calling a remote SNMP host allow for simple querying and validation of the data. They also describe exactly WHAT can be requested from the remote system. What this library brings? ------------------------- [](#what-this-library-brings) Almost every \*nix system comes with [`Net-SNMP`](http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net) library and [tools for it](https://wiki.debian.org/SNMP). For example to see the structure describing installed disks on a Synology NAS you can use a single command to print a nice tree: ``` % snmptranslate -Tp 'SYNOLOGY-DISK-MIB::diskTable' +--diskTable(1) | +--diskEntry(1) | Index: diskIndex, diskStatus | +-- ---- Integer32 diskIndex(1) | Range: 0..2147483647 +-- -R-- String diskID(2) +-- -R-- String diskModel(3) +-- -R-- String diskType(4) +-- -R-- Integer32 diskStatus(5) | Range: 1..5 +-- -R-- Integer32 diskTemperature(6) ``` However, there's no programmatic access to all the information presented in that tree (and parsing it is a fragile nightmare). `Net-SNMP` provides everything needed, and it's **the** library for SNMP interactions & MIB parsing. Unfortunately, it's written in `C` is , it has no PHP binding. Since MIB standard is in active development for close to 35 years, pretty much there are no fully compatible options other than `Net-SNMP`. ### ...but can't we use `Net-SNMP` in PHP?! [](#but-cant-we-use-net-snmp-in-php) Yes! Since PHP 7.4 it's possible thanks to [FFI](https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.ffi.php). It's not easy, due to a ton of ancient-C magic present in many places, yet possible. This library hides the complexity behind a nice object-oriented interface. [![tree-example](.github/tree-example.png)](.github/tree-example.png)*(example above is included in [`examples`](examples/) directory)* Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 7.4 (64-bit, since SNMP contains such types) - Release version of `libnetsnmp` - **macOS** ships with it (`/usr/lib/libnetsnmp.25.dylib`), as well as all tools like `snmptranslate` - **Linux** will require installation of a package (e.g. Debian/Ubuntu: `snmp`) - **Windows** requires installation, Net-SNMP repository [contains precompiled binaries](https://sourceforge.net/projects/net-snmp/files/net-snmp%20binaries/) License ------- [](#license) The library itself is [MIT-licensed](LICENSE). However, the code uses & includes parts of Net-SNMP. The code source tree contains parts of Net-SNMP header files, as well as structures (e.g. constants) translated from C to PHP. For details about NET-SNMP licensing see [LICENSE-NETSNMP](LICENSE-NETSNMP). *I'm not a lawyer, but this stuff is free & open-source and you can use it - just play fair and include the licenses ;)* ### Health Score 20 — LowBetter than 14% of packages Maintenance16 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity15 Limited adoption so far Community9 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity33 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
