Leak Sensor and Solarwinds Orion
I have a SensorGateway (firmware 9.2.0-STD (Apr 4 2024)) with a single leak sensor. I have Solarwinds Orion MIB database updated to version 1.5.0.60121.
I've downloaded the only MIB database I can find from the Google machine: https://serverscheck.com/support/downloads.asp
Checking that .MIB file I can see that 1.3.6.1.4.1.17095.3.10.0 is the value I need and I've verified that with iReasoning MIB Browser.
But when I go to make the universal device puller in Orion, 3.10.0 is for a voltage setting. Please advise.

After opening a ticket with Solarwinds, they told me that even if Orion's MIB Browser does not line up with MIB file of the device, you can still create a universal device poller with the correct OID.
Finding the correct OID is the tricky part. I was able to use SNMPwalk that's built into Solarwinds (C:\Program Files (x86)\SolarWinds\Orion\SNMPWalk.exe) and with a lot of trial and error determined that 1.3.6.1.4.1.17095.8.3.4.0 was the right OID for me. That displays an integer, 0 for dry, 1 for wet.
Orion's UDP also defaults to SNMP type GET NEXT which throws it off by one. That is frustrating. Changed that type to GET and it will give you the bang on value you are wanting.
After that adventure, I'm now able to poll whether my sensor is dry or wet and alert on it accordingly.
Thank you all for the help and I hope this post helps some poor soul like me just trying to check off an audit finding.
