# About Corona sends SNMP queries to defined CIDR ranges and populates SQL database based on nodes found. Some particular problems it tries to deal with: * Only discover one node once * To that effect it has priority list of idDescr lo0.0, loopback0, vlan2 etc. Higher priority will always replace lower priority interface (say you have MGMT in loop0 but giga0/2.42 has valid MGMT address towards L2 metro) * Tries to handle gracefully renumbering, renaming, etc # Install 1. gem install corona 2. corona 3. ^C (break it) 4. edit ~/.config/corona/config 5. put corona in crontab as _corona|mail -E -s 'new nodes found' foo@example.com_ # Config * You need to configure SNMP community * You need to define CIDR to poll and CIDRs to ignore (subset of those you poll) * CIDR in example config is list, but can be replaced with 'string' which points to file, where CIDRs are listed
