Monitoring multiple devices - same ip different ports.

Question

Hello,

I am trying to setup monitoring for multiple devices that are behind a Nomadix. There is port forwarding setup on the Nomadix, so I am adding each devices with a single IP but different ports for SNMP. I was able to add one device, but when I try to setup another device in Sys Manager it displays all of the information of the first device that I setup. I went back to the first device and changed the ip address to something that was invalid and applied the changes, and then I was able to successfully add the second device. Is there a better way to do this? If it was only 2 devices I wouldn't have an issue with managing it this way, but I have to setup 60 devices, and adding new devices will be a huge pain.

Thanks in advance,

John

John,

Orion assumes each node has it's own unique IP Address in the system.  I am not familar with the Nomadix.  Is there any way to configure the Nomadix to use a set of different IP's? Even if the snmp forwarder is listening on every IP address, this will give you a set of aliases he can use with Orion.
