详解python并发获取snmp信息及性能测试
python & snmp
用python获取snmp信息有多个现成的库可以使用，其中比较常用的是netsnmp和pysnmp两个库。网上有较多的关于两个库的例子。
本文重点在于如何并发的获取snmp的数据，即同时获取多台机器的snmp信息。
netsnmp
先说netsnmp。python的netsnmp，其实是来自于net-snmp包。
python通过一个c文件调用net-snmp的接口获取数据。
因此，在并发获取多台机器的时候，不能够使用协程获取。因为使用协程，在get数据的时候，协程会一直等待net-snmp接口返回数据，而不会像socket使用时那样在等待数据时把CPU切换给其他协程使用。从这点上来说，使用协程和串行获取没有区别。
那么如何解决并发获取的问题呢？可以使用线程，多线程获取(当然也可以使用多进程)。多个线程同时调用net-snmp的接口获取数据，然后cpu在多个线程之间不停切换。当一个线程获取一个结果后，可以继续调用接口获取下一个snmp数据。
这里我写了一个样例程序。首先把所有的host和oid做成任务放到队列里，然后启动多个线程，去执行获取任务。程序样例如下：
import threading
import time
import netsnmp
import Queue
start_time = time.time()
hosts = ["192.20.150.109", "192.20.150.110", "192.20.150.111", "192.20.150.112", "192.20.150.113", "192.20.150.114",

netsnmp除了支持get操作之外，还支持walk操作，即遍历某个oid。
但是walk使用的时候需要谨慎，以免导致高延时等问题，具体可以参见之前的一篇snmpwalk高延时问题分析的博客。
pysnmp
pysnmp是用python实现的一套snmp协议的库。其自身提供了对于异步的支持。
import time
import Queue
from pysnmp.hlapi.asyncore import *
t = time.time()
myq = Queue.Queue()
#回调函数。在有数据返回时触发
def cbFun(snmpEngine, sendRequestHandle, errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varBinds, cbCtx):
myq.put((time.time()-t, varBinds))
hosts = ["192.20.150.109", "192.20.150.110", "192.20.150.111", "192.20.150.112", "192.20.150.113", "192.20.150.114",

snmpEngine = SnmpEngine()
#添加任务
for oid in oids:
for h in hosts:
getCmd(snmpEngine,
CommunityData('cluster'),
UdpTransportTarget((h, 161), timeout=3, retries=0,),
ContextData(),
ObjectType(ObjectIdentity(oid)),
cbFun=cbFun)
time1 = time.time() - t
#执行异步获取snmp
snmpEngine.transportDispatcher.runDispatcher()
#打印结果
while True:
try:
info = myq.get(block=False)
print info
except Queue.Empty:
print time1
print time.time() - t
break
pysnmp本身只支持最基础的get和getnext命令，因此如果想使用walk，需要自己进行实现。
性能测试
在同一个环境下，对两者进行了性能测试。两者对198个host，10个oid进行采集。
| 测试组 | 耗时(sec) |
|---|---|
| netsnmp(20线程) | 6.252 |
| netsnmp(50线程) | 3.269 |
| netsnmp(200线程) | 3.265 |
| pysnmp | 4.812 |
可以看到netsnmp的采集速度跟线程数有关。当线程数增大到一定程度，采集时间不再缩短。因为开辟线程同样会消耗时间。而已有的线程已经足够处理。
pysnmp性能较之略差一下。详细分析pysnmp在添加任务(执行getCmd时)消耗了约1.2s，之后的采集约消耗3.3秒。
在增加了oid数，在进行实验。host仍然是198个，oid是42个。
| 测试组 | 耗时(sec) |
|---|---|
| netsnmp(20线程) | 30.935 |
| netsnmp(50线程) | 12.914 |
| netsnmp(200线程) | 4.044 |
| pysnmp | 11.043 |
可以看到差距被进一步拉大。在线程足够多的情况下，netsnmp的效率要明显强于pysnmp。
因为二者都支持可以并行采集多个host，从易用性来说，netsnmp更为简单一些，且netsnmp支持walk功能。本文更加推荐netsnmp。
安装netsnmp需要安装net-snmp。如果centos，则使用yum会较为方便。
