Search for IP Address query link

Network_Guru

Back in the old days, we used an Orion query in e-mails to link directly to the node details page.

orionserver/.../SearchNodes.Action.asp

I'm looking for something similar to embed in our Sharepoint portal.

Basically the user fills out a form with the IP address of the device they are working on.

Once the form is submitted, a link to the NCM Node Details is generated using the IP address.

This query sort of works, but does not link directly to the Node Details page:

orionserver/.../NodeSearchResults.aspx

This opens a page with a list of nodes with this IP address.

I'd like it to open the node details page directly.

I don'r see any other aspx code that allows me to do that.

Has anyone implemented soemthing like this?

Ok. I have uploaded file NodeDetailsByIPAddres.aspx which should work.

I had placed this file in my website in c:\inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Resources.

NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx

If you need it you can wrote own aspx page which will be able to do it.

Here is my example of code how it can look like:

page: NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx

<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Orion/OrionMasterPage.master" AutoEventWireup="true" %>

<%@ Import Namespace="SolarWinds.Orion.Common" %>

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>

private string strIpAddress;

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

strIpAddress = Request["IP_Address"];

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(strIpAddress))

{

strIpAddress = strIpAddress.Trim();

using (SqlCommand command = SqlHelper.GetTextCommand("SELECT TOP 1 NodeID FROM Nodes WHERE IP_Address=@ipAddress&quot)

{

command.Parameters.AddWithValue("ipAddress", strIpAddress);

object objNodeID = SqlHelper.ExecuteScalar(command);

if (objNodeID != null)

{

string strNodeID = Convert.ToString(objNodeID);

Response.Redirect("/Orion/NetPerfMon/NodeDetails.aspx?NetObject=N:" + strNodeID);

}

else {

strIpAddress = string.Empty;

}

</script>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ResourcesStyleSheetPlaceHolder" Runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeadPlaceHolder" Runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content3" ContentPlaceHolderID="menuBarPlaceholder" Runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content4" ContentPlaceHolderID="ScriptManagerPlaceHolder" Runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content5" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">

<div style="padding-top: 10pt; padding-left: 10pt">Node with IP address: <%= strIpAddress %> wasn't found.</div>

</asp:Content>

<asp:Content ID="Content6" ContentPlaceHolderID="outsideFormPlaceHolder" Runat="Server">

</asp:Content>

and Url will have following form:

http://orionserver/Orion/NetPerfMon/Resources/NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx?IP_Address=10.11.12.13

Thanks for your help Pavel,

I created this new resource, but it does not work.

Unexpected Website Error

The server block is not well formed.

I am not an ASPX guru, so I can't tell where the problem lies with this script.

The point I was also making was that we have lost some functionality in these new versions.

A resource that was included by default, is no longer available...

You 'da bomb Pavel.

That's exactly what I was looking for!

Hi PavelSrot,

Hopefully you're still around I'm a colleague of Network_Guru ( who retired a couple years ago), and I was around when he get your help on this issue, but I didn't implement it with him. Anyway, we're still using this NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx file, and it's been great, but on one of our instances of Orion that was recently upgraded, the file is no longer working. When we access it, we get a browser error message:

"Unexpected Website Error
The file '/Orion/NetPerfMon/Resources/NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx' has not been pre-compiled, and cannot be requested."

I have double checked, and the .aspx file is in the correct folder, and the file isn't corrupt or anything, so I'm not sure what the issue is. I searched for the 'NodeDetailsByIPAddress.aspx' file on both the server where it's currently working, and the server where it isn't working, and I did notice that on the server where it IS working, there is a file in the windows\Microsoft.net\framework\v4.0.30319\temporary asp.net files\root\<etc>... folder called "nodedetailsbyipaddress.aspx.769c524f.compiled". There was no .compiled file on the server where it isn't working. Note sure if that's relevant.

Just wondering if you have any thoughts on why we would be seeing this error...

Thanks,
