I am just wondering how hard to would be to replace something like LibreNMS or PRTG with Prometheus? With Libre, we just install, set the SNMP community sting, scan our network, and all devices get mapped, linked, and monitored. I imagine Prometheus would be much more involved? Sounds like we would have to edit .yml files for each device / vendor just to get the SNMP metrics into the database. Then, we must create custom Grafana dashboards for each device type right?
