Built-in Monitoring Packs
GridNMS ships with ready-made monitoring packs so that monitoring works the moment a device lands in the right class. A pack bundles the data points to collect (SNMP values, on a timer) and the tabs they add to the device detail page.
This page is a reference for the two bundles that ship out of the box:
- Core bundle — vendor-neutral monitoring for routers, switches, servers, and UPSs.
- UniFi bundle — Ubiquiti UniFi access points and cloud gateways.
Polling intervals below are how often each value is read. Counters (bytes, packets, errors) are read frequently and turned into per-second rates; descriptive values (system description, VLAN list) are read less often.
Core bundle

Customizing or extending
Section titled “Customizing or extending”Built-in packs are a starting point, not a limit. You can:
- Tune any data point’s interval or disable it per class — see Enabling & Disabling Data Points.
- Build your own pack for hardware not covered here — see Building a Monitoring Pack.
- Set thresholds on any collected metric to raise events — see Events & Alerts.
