Pre-configured SNMP sensors can be applied to devices that belong to the following categories: Printers, UPS, NAS, and Switches.

Once the SNMP status is on READ, you can apply pre-configured SNMP sensors to them.

Click on the check box on the right of the desired SNMP template to choose it and then click on the Apply button

In regards to printers, the Printer Supplies Table template is available.

This contains Supply Units (Toner Cartridge, Drum Unit) and Supply Level:

this is the printer supplies table which displays each supply level for printer colors, for example Black, Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow Cartridges supply level

For UPS devices, the UPS Basic Info template is available.

This template contains Alarms Present, Battery Status, Battery Voltage, Battery Current, Battery Temperature, Estimated Remaining Minutes, and Estimated Remaining Charge:

this is the UPS Basic Info table which displays the following UPS sensors: Alarms Present, Battery Status, Battery Voltage, Battery Current, Battery Temperature, Estimated Remaining Minutes (if disconnected from power AC), Estimated Remaining Charge

If the device is a NAS, three different SNMP templates are available.

NAS Hard Disk Table

The NAS Hard Disks Table template shows Hard Disks, Description, Status, Capacity, Info, Temperature, and Model:

this is the Hard Disk table

The NAS Volumes Table template displays Volumes, Description, Free Size, Total Size, Filesystem, and Status.

this is the Nas Volumes table which displays the following information: Name of the Volume, Free Size, Total Size.

The NAS Basic Info template contains CPU Usage, CPU Temperature, Total Available Memory, Free Memory, Uptime, System Temperature, Number of Hard disks, Volumes, and Last Error Message:

this is the Nas Basic info table which displays the following information: Last Error Message, CPU Usage, CPU Temperature, Total Available Memory Free Memory, Uptime, System Temperature, Number of Hard Drives, Volumes

Note: Not all the NAS rely on the standard NAS-MIB.The current Pre-Configured SNMP template is limited to QNAP, ReadyNAS, Synology and all the NAS drives relying on the NAS-MIB.

For each RAID configured on the Synology NAS, we monitor status, usage, and available free storage. For each sensor retrieved you also get a graphical representation of the historical values.

This is the Synology NAS preconfigured template applied to the Domotz Monitoring Dashboards

Synology SMART Disks Status:

For each disk and variable of the Disk, Domotz will monitor the status of the variable and the value (for instance Airflow Temperature, Command Timeout, Pending Sector, E2E Errors, Power Cycle Counts, etc):

In case of a network switch (or in general, any Network Device supporting IF-MIB for the Interfaces statistics via SNMP) the “Network Interfaces Table” template contains the following colums:
Interface name, Operational Status, Inbound (Traffic, Discards, Errors), Outbound (Traffic, Discards Errors), NIC Type, Admin status, Phisical Address (MAC), MTU, Speed:

This is the Network Interfaces SNMP table applied to a switch. Columns displayed here are: Interface, Operational Status, Inbound Traffic, Inbound Discards, Inbound Errors
This is the Network Interfaces SNMP table applied to a switch. Columns displayed here are: Outbound Traffic, Outbound Discards, Outbound Errors, Nic Type
This is the Network Interfaces SNMP table applied to a switch. Columns displayed here are: Admin Status, Physical Address, MTU, Speed

Power Supply Monitor

In case of cisco switches which supports it, the Power Supply Status:

Possible values are:

Normal (1), Warning (2), Critical (3), Shutdown (4), Not Present (5), Not Functioning (6)


Fan Status contains the following columns:

Possible values are:

Normal (1), Warning (2), Critical (3), Shutdown (4), Not Present (5), Not Functioning (6)

  • Currently Active Connections (total number of currently active connections for the policy)
  • Tunnels rate (#/s) (number of tunnels belonging to the policy per second)
  • Traffic (traffic in bytes per second)
