NAME

       munin-node-configure - View and modify which plugins are enabled.

SYNOPSIS

         munin-node-configure [options]

DESCRIPTION

       munin-node-configure reports which plugins are enabled on the current node, and suggest changes to this
       list.

       By default this program shows which plugins are activated on the system.

       If you specify "--suggest", it will present a table of plugins that will probably work (according to the
       plugins' autoconf command).

       If you specify "--snmp", followed by a list of hosts, it will present a table of SNMP plugins that they
       support.

       If you additionally specify "--shell", shell commands to install those same plugins will be printed.
       These can be reviewed or piped directly into a shell to install the plugins.

GENERAL OPTIONS

       --help
           Show this help page.

       --version
           Show version information.

       --debug
           Print debug information on the operations of "munin-node-configure".  This can be very verbose.

           All debugging output is printed to STDOUT, and each line is prefixed with '#'.  Only errors are
           printed to STDERR.

       --pidebug
           Plugin debug.  Sets the environment variable MUNIN_DEBUG to 1 so that plugins may enable debugging.

       --config <file>
           Override configuration file [/etc/munin/munin-node.conf]

       --servicedir <dir>
           Override plugin directory [/etc/munin/plugins/]

       --sconfdir <dir>
           Override plugin configuration directory [/etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/]

       --libdir <dir>
           Override plugin library [/usr/share/munin/plugins/]

       --exitnoterror
           Do not consider plugins that exit non-zero exit-value as error.

       --suggest
           Suggest plugins that might be added or removed, instead of those that are currently enabled.

   OUTPUT OPTIONS
       By default, "munin-node-configure" will print out a table summarising the results.

       --shell
           Instead of a table, print shell commands to install the new plugin suggestions.

           This implies "--suggest", unless "--snmp" was also enabled.  By default, it will not attempt to
           remove any plugins.

       --remove-also
           When "--shell" is enabled, also provide commands to remove plugins that are no longer applicable from
           the service directory.

   PLUGIN SELECTION OPTIONS
       --families <family,...>
           Override the list of families that will be used (auto, manual, contrib, snmpauto).  Multiple families
           can be specified as a comma-separated list, by repeating the "--families" option, or as a combination
           of the two.

           When listing installed plugins, the default families are 'auto', 'manual' and 'contrib'.  Only 'auto'
           plugins are checked for suggestions.  SNMP probing is only performed on 'snmpauto' plugins.

       --newer <version>
           Only consider plugins added to the Munin core since <version>.  This option is useful when upgrading,
           since it can prevent plugins that have been manually removed from being reinstalled.  This only
           applies to plugins in the 'auto' family.

   SNMP Options
       --snmp <host|cidr,...>
           Probe the SNMP agents on the host or CIDR network (e.g. "192.168.1.0/24"), to see what plugins they
           support. This may take some time, especially if the many hosts are specified.

           This option can be specified multiple times, or as a comma-separated list, to include more than one
           host/CIDR.

       --snmpversion <ver>
           The SNMP version (1, 2c or 3) to use. ['2c']

       --snmpport <port>
           The SNMP port to use [161]

       SNMP 1/2c authentication
           SNMP versions 1 and 2c use a "community string" for authentication.  This is a shared password, sent
           in plaintext over the network.

       --snmpcommunity <string>
           The community string for version 1 and 2c agents.  ['public'] (If this works your device is probably
           very insecure and needs a security checkup).

       SNMP 3 authentication
           SNMP v3 has three security levels. Lowest is "noAuthNoPriv", which provides neither authentication
           nor encryption.  If a username and "authpassword" are given it goes up to "authNoPriv", and the
           connection is authenticated.  If "privpassword" is also given the security level becomes "authPriv",
           and the connection is authenticated and encrypted.

           Note: Encryption can slow down slow or heavily loaded network devices.  For most uses "authNoPriv"
           will be secure enough -- the password is sent over the network encrypted in any case.

           ContextEngineIDs are not (yet) supported.

           For further reading on SNMP v3 security models please consult RFC3414 and the documentation for
           Net::SNMP.

       --snmpusername <name>
           Username.  There is no default.

       --snmpauthpassword <password>
           Authentication password.  Optional when encryption is also enabled, in which case defaults to the
           privacy password ("--snmpprivpassword").

       --snmpauthprotocol <protocol>
           Authentication protocol.  One of 'md5' or 'sha' (HMAC-MD5-96, RFC1321 and SHA-1/HMAC-SHA-96, NIST
           FIPS PIB 180, RFC2264).  ['md5']

       --snmpprivpassword <password>
           Privacy password to enable encryption.  There is no default.  An empty ('') password is considered as
           no password and will not enable encryption.

           Privacy requires a privprotocol as well as an authprotocol and a authpassword, but all of these are
           defaulted (to 'des', 'md5', and the privpassword value, respectively) and may therefore be left
           unspecified.

       --snmpprivprotocol <protocol>
           If the privpassword is set this setting controls what kind of encryption is used to achieve privacy
           in the session.  Only the very weak 'des' encryption method is supported officially.  ['des']

           munin-node-configure also supports '3des' (CBC-3DES-EDE, aka Triple-DES, NIST FIPS 46-3) as specified
           in IETF draft-reeder-snmpv3-usm-3desede.  Whether or not this works with any particular device, we do
           not know.
