Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the AST collector implementations for system, interface, VLAN, disk, and partition metrics, then compare their existing mappings with the listed SNMP metrics. Done means establishing the intended coverage and verifying the requested metrics are consistently available where supported.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

There are multiple system and interface metrics unavailable on AST solution (collector), as reference there are SNMP metrics with no similar metric on AST:

System:
sysAttrWatchdogState
sysAttrModeMaint
sysAttrFailoverIsRedundant
sysCmSyncStatusStatus
sysCmSyncStatusColor
sysChassisPowerSupplyStatus
sysChassisFanStatus
sysChassisFanSpeed
sysChassisTempTemperature
sysHostDiskFreeBlocks
sysHostDiskTotalBlocks
sysSystemUptimeInSec

Interface:
ifHighSpeed
ifHCInOctets
ifHCOutOctets
ifOutQLen
ifInDiscards
ifInUcastPkts
ifOutDiscards
ifOutUcastPkts

Some of the interface metrics are available for vlan but not for physical interfaces. Similarly for disk, there are some metrics available for disk but not for partitions like: /var, /usr/ etc.

Is there a future plan to add these metrics?
