bsnmp-regex enhances bsnmpd by enabling the extraction of counters from text data such as log files and program output. This module can be used to create counters from a variety of sources.
Installing bsnmp-regex is pretty straightforward. First, you need to `cd' to the directory where the package is located and run `./configure' to configure the package for your system. If you're using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to run `sh ./configure' instead.
Running `configure' can take some time, but it will print messages indicating which features it is checking for. Once it's done, you can run `make' to compile the package. If the package comes with any self-tests, you can run them using `make check'. To install the programs, data files, and documentation, just run `make install'. Finally, if you want to clean up your source code directory and remove the program binaries and object files, run `make clean'. If you want to completely remove the files that `configure' created, run `make distclean'.
The latest release of bsnmp-regex includes a fix for a crash that was occurring when parsing extra long lines, as well as some minor fixes. Overall, if you need to create counters from text data, bsnmp-regex is a great option that's easy to install and use.
