HikVision NVR's CCTVs

[minar]

Hi there,
We have this problem in our company, with monitoring CCTVs. I am new with zabbix and not sure 100% if this is matter of bad configuration of zabbix discoveries or if its just lack of knowledge. We have hikvision CCTVs connected to hikvision PoE Swithes (3 SW - 1 "main" connected to NVR and 2 in other Server rooms connected with fibre optics to the "main" SW). The NVR itself is in VLAN 10.1.6.X. but CCTVs have IP range from "Inside LAN2" which is 192.168.0.X. So they are "unaccesible" from the "outside". Our goal is Just to know which camera is online and which offline, and send email notifi when CCTV went offline. But when I made discovery rule according to tutorials i found on zabbix forums or internet in general, nothing has seemed to work the way we wanted, not even discovered any of the CCTV. Only thing i managed to made is monitoring the NVR itself, but still dont know the state of each camera. My question is, if there is a way to read devices connected to NVR via SNMP or zabbix agent or even some other way ?
Thanks a lot for reading and hopefully helpin me out.
Much regards, Cya

Show me how you did to configure it in zabbix.
Did you test the new template Hikvision camera by HTTP?

Hi.

Busy with the same type of project. I'm using the default Hikvision camera by HTTP template. I created a camera map to display all the cameras. We have 3 NVR's and more than 70 cameras.

Maybe try to just monitor the cameras separate. I have a couple of managed switches that I also created a separate map for. My next step would be to get or create a template for the NVR's.

Hope we could help each other.

Enjoy

Hi.

Found an NVR template for Hikvision: https://share.zabbix.com/templates/u...hikvision-nvr/

Tried it, not getting what I was hoping for. When I do an snmpwalk, get like 9 line items back. Got he same info back on both NVR's: DS-7732NI-K4, DS-9664NXI-I8 / S.
Looks like info is limited.

I'm new to Zabbix, is there a better way to monitor your NVR's?

Thanks
