Version 1.1.0
Released on 2023-2-15

About

This ZenPack enables modeling and monitoring of Infoblox appliances. It automatically discovers and models grid members when the grid master device is modeled.

Prerequisites

Prerequisite Restriction
Product Zenoss 6.4.1 and higher
Required ZenPacks ZenPacks.zenoss.ZenPackLib >= 2.1.1
ZenPacks.zenoss.PS.Util >= 1.10.0
Other dependencies None

Installing

After meeting the dependency requirements, install the ZenPack via the command line as described in the Zenoss Resource Manager Admin Guide for your Zenoss RM version.

Device Classes

  • /Network/Infoblox

Components Modeled

  • DHCP Network
  • DNS Zones
  • Fans
  • Grid
  • Nodes
  • PowerSupplies
  • Services
  • Networks
  • NtpPeers

During the modeling of the grid master device, all grid member devices are automatically added to Zenoss. To enable the Network component, the grid master must be modeled twice, as the grid master is determined only after devices are modeled.

Modelers

  • Generic
    • zenoss.snmp.InterfaceMap
    • zenoss.snmp.DeviceMap
  • InfobloxDevice
    • zenoss.snmp.InfoBloxGridMap

Configuration

Typical SNMP device configuration is required.

The modeler plugin zenoss.cmd.InfobloxLicense requires SSH credentials to be set, specifically zCommandUsername and zCommandPassword.

Networks are monitored via Infoblox WAPI, so zInfobloxWAPIUsername, zInfobloxWAPIPassword, zInfobloxWAPIUseHttps, and zInfobloxWAPIPort must be set to correct values.

The modeler plugin zenoss.python.InfobloxNtpPeer requires SSH credentials (zCommandUsername, zCommandPassword) to be set. zKeyPath for an SSH key file is NOT supported.
