SNMP Configuration Management

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) configuration in Meraki enables network monitoring, device management, and integration with external network management systems. SNMP provides standardized access to device status, performance metrics, and configuration information through both community-based (SNMPv1/v2c) and user-based (SNMPv3) authentication methods. This functionality supports automated monitoring workflows, alerting systems, and comprehensive network visibility for enterprise network operations.

Examples

Example-1: The example below demonstrates SNMP configuration using tested YAML configuration from pipeline fixtures.

meraki:
  domains:
    - name: "!env domain"
      administrator:
        name: "!env org_admin"
      organizations:
        - name: "!env org"
          networks:
            - name: "!env network_name"
              product_types:
                - appliance
                - switch
                - wireless
                - camera
                - sensor
                - cellularGateway
              snmp:
                access: users
                # access: community
                # community_string: publicro
                users:
                  - username: cisco
