snmpen 1.1.3

SNMP Enumerator

SNMPen (SNMP Enumerator)

You know snmpcheck? Good, snmpen is doing the same. It's another enumerator for SNMP enabled hosts. It started as a drop-in replacement for snmpcheck which was no longer maintained back in 2018/2019. Nowadays, snmpen has its own heart and mind but still shares a similar CLI interface with snmpcheck.

Enumerations are happening against RFC1157-compliant systems. The heavy lifting is done by pysnmp.

Installation

$ pip install snmpen

For Nix or NixOS users is a package available. Keep in mind that the latest releases might only be present in the unstable channel.

 $ nix-env -iA nixos.snmpen

The tools support IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses and FQDNs as input.

  -f, --hosts-file FILE
                        Read targets from FILE (one host per line)
  -v, --version         Show script version and exit
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit

Usage examples:
  snmpen 172.16.1.1
  snmpen 2001:db8::10
  snmpen demo.pysnmp.com
  snmpen 172.16.1.1 -o
  snmpen -f hosts.txt
  snmpen --output-format plain -f hosts.txt
  snmpen --output-format rich -o report.txt 172.16.1.1
  snmpen -c private -s 2c 172.16.1.1
  snmpen -w -d -t 10 172.16.1.1

The hosts file supports one target per line. Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored.

When -o is used without a filename, snmpen writes one file per successful target using <target>.txt.

The system information section also shows the detected supported SNMP versions for the host (currently SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c detection).
