Get data from server with telnet? Is it Possible?

[ro_yoshioka]

Hi,
I my network we are monitoring about 200 Ubiquiti Nanostations devices, but through SNMP I can't get data like "numbers of clients connected" and I found on Ubiquiti's Forum a Munin Plugin which connect to de device with telnet and execute a command with perl/regex to get data I want.
Does anyone have any idea if this is possible on zabbix?


Thanks a lot.

Set your item type to "telnet"

Hi,

I havel already read this doc, but my problem is that I have to run the command

ubntbox mca-status

but my return is

deviceName=DEVICE,deviceId=00:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX,firmw areVersion=XM.ar7240.v5.5.4.16501.130308.1015,plat form=Bullet M2,deviceIp=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

This is my return, but I need only the values of an especific item, for example "wlanConnections=9" I need to filter this line and store number "9" into zabbix, so I can have the number os clients connected in Wlan. The telnet part is working fine, but how could I filter data I need?


Thanks.
