Hello. We're trying to monitor printer statuses (toner and staple levels), so we decided to give the "Splunk Connect for SNMP" add-on a try since the printer provides its status via SNMP.
Our environment is modest, so we do not need a large, robust infrastructure.
The documentation implies you can use the SC4SNMP with Docker Compose or Microk8s. Given our small environment, we do not want to build resource-heavy Microk8s infrastructure, so we went with Docker Compose.
However, the Docker Compose documentation is lacking, and it even links to documentation under Microk8s. It's hard to tell which docs apply to Composer and which do not.
Right now, the app can detect a printer with a provided IP address and return its model. That's all it does at the moment. I can't figure out how to configure above and beyond that without building out the Microk8s infrastructure.
Am I missing something? Or do I really need to build a 16-core / 16 GB server just to monitor a couple of dozen printers' toner levels?
I've also opened a ticket with Splunk support, but I have not heard back yet.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions!
