NRF52840 Network Data Retrievement

[Energysensors12]

Hello everyone,

I have a network that consists of NRF52840 DK and multiple dongles that are pushing the collected data to central, I would like to retrieve data from this network to observe the health of the network, to know is it up and running,or if there are any issues:

Therefore to see things such as:

-packet loss rate

-bandwidth usage

-battery level of the nodes

etc.

So I have thought of using SNMP protocol but I could not find much information about using SNMP on NRF52840, Also I believe I could directly read the data from the nodes without using SNMP, however are there any example codes in SDK related to this that I can use to start to build on?

any ideas/thoughts would be appreciated.

Edit: I have simplified my post for clarification for other readers.

Thanks in advance,

Have a nice day.

Therefore to see things such as:

There's the Battery service (BAS) that's already present in several of our examples, see Battery Service.

There's also throughput examples that monitor the bandwidth/data rate, see Experimental: ATT_MTU Throughput Example. 

With BLE, the data rate and packet loss are inversely proportional, as long as both ends of the link are capable of handling the given data rate. This means that you can calculate the packet loss from the data rate. 

You can create an SNMP service, with characteristics for battery, bandwidth, and packet loss, if you want to share this information with other nodes.
