Maybe installing some device inline that does support SNMP.
Iāve contacted Ubiquiti to understand why they arenāt supporting SNMP on the UDR, but havenāt received a reply yet.
You can actually SSH into the UDR and install SNMP, according to some websites I found. Itās ājustā a Linux system, after all. That said, I havenāt done it myself and you may void your warranty or right to any support from them.
Thanks, yeah I did read something similar but wasnāt sure. Iāll look into it and see how I go
Thanks again for the reply
Hi Jim,
I have an UDR, Iām wondering if these sensors should work for me as well. Frankly, Iāve never used snmp, I am not aware of the basics either. For example I donāt know if the baseoids are generic, thy are the same for each router, or they are unique. If they are unique, where can I find the ones that work for my UDR?
Is it enough if I just enable snmp, or shall I also grant access rights?
Sorry for the very junior questions and thank you in advance.
Regards,
Zoli
SNMP is not available on the UDR. Good luck getting info out of Ubiquiti: theyāre not saying why it isnāt supported or whether itās on a roadmap.
Hm. You are right. The setting was available, but only for my AP, not for my UDR. First time I thought, that itās applicable for each device. 
Take a look at this: Installing snmpd on Ubiquity Dream Machine Pro - Brandon Checketts
I was able to install SNMPD on my UDR but didnāt have time to look for correct baseoid.

Im trying to create a bandwidth monitor for my omada setup. Ran snmpwalk to output the following:
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1025 = STRING: default/lo
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1026 = STRING: default/eth0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1027 = STRING: default/ip6tnl0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1028 = STRING: default/sit0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1029 = STRING: default/gre0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1030 = STRING: default/gretap0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1031 = STRING: default/bond0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1032 = STRING: default/veth0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1034 = STRING: default/eth1
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1038 = STRING: default/br-lan
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1039 = STRING: default/eth1.4094
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2049 = STRING: vnet/lo
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2050 = STRING: vnet/ip6tnl0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2051 = STRING: vnet/sit0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2052 = STRING: vnet/gre0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2053 = STRING: vnet/gretap0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2057 = STRING: vnet/veth1
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2059 = STRING: vnet/eth0.1
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2060 = STRING: vnet/eth0.77
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2061 = STRING: vnet/eth0.69
IF-MIB::ifType.1025 = INTEGER: softwareLoopback(24)
IF-MIB::ifType.1026 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6)
I figure that 1026 is the WAN, 2059-2061 are my VLANs based on snmpwalk. Based on this post, I would use 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.xxxx for Rx and 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.xxxx for Tx.
The user in that post stated:
to get a measurement that you can use you need to get the delta of two measurements divided by the seconds that the measuremants where apart from each other.
Anyone know the template sensor to do this?
You need a derivative for that. Check my earlier post describing the sensor hierarchy that I used.
Thanks, tried out your sensor heirarchy, but the values donāt seem to correspond with my activity. I can confirm that .10 and .16 are āifInOctetsā and āifOutOctetsā but the values always stay under 1Mbps. Iāve tried these sensors for 1038 (br-lan) and 2059 (eth0.1) also.
Also looked at this guide from TP-Link: How to check the link status and data traffic statistics of TP-Link Business Routers with SNMP
The yaml I used:

# Convert throughput derivative from Bps to Mbps
value_template: "{{ ((states('sensor.network_wan_down_throughput_bps') | int) * 8 / 10**6) | round(1) }}"
wan_up_throughput:
unit_of_measurement: Mbps
# Convert throughput derivative from Bps to Mbps
value_template: "{{ ((states('sensor.network_wan_up_throughput_bps') | int) * 8 / 10**6) | round(1) }}"
If you poll those oidās with snmpwalk, do you see increasing values that can be related to the current network usage?
yep, the actual values continue to go up. Based on the recordings from 9am today, it shows eth0 has received about 1.5 billion bytes, which is about 1.5gb of data?
Ok, the rest should work then. Do a speed test and see if the derivative jumps. During low network usage it will most likely stay below 1 Mbps.
it does now

Be careful with Unifi OS 4.0.3 and home assistant integrations. See this link
I was going to upgrade as well until I saw this.

i do not use the integration - but this may help? -
Where can we find baseoids for the UniFi SNMP?
Interesting to note: v 4.x.x of the UDM-SE firmware has SNMP functionality enabled - no need to ssh in and install the packages manually any more, you can enable it via the console now

Anyone get this working with UniFi OS 4.0.6? It should work in theory.
Yes
