Wish list for next version/update
ceclark
I just upgraded to version 3.5 and I like what I see. There are no "security" enhancements, so that is where my wish list is coming from....
1. SNMPv3 Support
2. Allow file transfers using a secure protocol like SCP. (we're not allowed to directly log into a device, however we can transfer the config via SNMPv3 using a secure protocol)
3. Separate login credentials for connecting to device and authentication to a device (see
www4.solarwinds.net/.../topic.asp
. This could be resolved with #1 and #2 being implemented

I agree with all of the above, especially #3. But I would also add:
1. Option for Cirrus to automatically reschedule config download (just for individual node) if node was down when normal nightly inventory/config download job takes place.
2. Ability (or scriptable way) for Cirrus to automatically update credentials for individual device if credentials are changed using a command script.
3. As always, tighter integration with Orion including the ability to manage Cirrus via a web interface.
4. Option for parallel command script execution.

BETTER SEARCHING!! We need to be able to search for patterns and for missing commands like in Cisco Works.

The ability to search the node list.
Stronger config editor, maybe with cisco syntax highlighting
Better integration with other products like Orion and Engineer's toolkit.

Get the Node list from the Orion database. Thus I do not have to enter devices TWICE, or forget to add them etc...
