Integrating NetBox and PRTG

Christmas is the best (and only, for me) time to write code. This Christmas I wrote a small PHP script that acts as middleware to integrate NetBox and PRTG.

I’ve made the code available via GitHub. All the details of why and how are explained there in more detail but essentially this allows you to automatically add a device in to PRTG when a device in NetBox is assigned a management IP (e.g. said device can be monitored, even if it’s a simple ping). Changes to that device in NetBox will then be reflected in PRTG.

I also received my first Pull Request on another one of my repositories and so that has received an update and gained support for Okta.

Next on my list is to look at integrating Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller and NetBox. That’ll be Christmas 2023 then…
