# SNMP integration

The SNMP integration monitors devices that speak SNMP, such as switches, routers, and firewalls. Grafana Alloy polls those devices remotely. The device must support SNMP v2c or v3.

| **What it’s for**  | Monitoring network interfaces, device health, and hardware status                                                           |
| **Under the hood** | Polls devices via SNMP v2c or v3, using each device’s MIBs (the metrics it exposes), including Cisco, Juniper, and Mikrotik |

## Metrics collected

The integration polls each device for these metric groups:

- **Interfaces**: Traffic, errors, status per port
- **Device**: CPU, memory, uptime
- **Hardware**: Temperature sensors and power-supply status

## What to know

This integration offers:

- Prebuilt dashboards: overview, fleet overview, logs
- Prebuilt alerts: interface status, device health
- Alloy polls the device remotely over SNMP
