Is anyone aware of a way to have NPM add a node upon receiving a certain SNMP trap? My idea is to configure devices to send a certain message when they come online and have solwarwinds add them in automatically.
You can run a program on receiving a trap -- this could be a powershell script that invokes the API to acheive this result.
If not automatically, at least a button that states "Manage This Node".
on trap, invoke a perl script with the Nodeid and IP address
if the nodeid is zero (an unknown node) the create a discovery for the node, looking at examples from here: Perl SDK - Start Discovery - PluginConfigurations
then you can manage what you like from the discovery....
