Dear Thwacksters, I am referrencing another Thwackster's Idea here. http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/3749. I would like to add to this and create a new feature request that allows you to assign custom properties durin gthe import of nodes via the Network Sonar Discover. This would be a highly usefull feature as you…
A colleague used the ip range instead of network subnet option in Sonar Discovery... 10.x.x.x to 255.255.255.224 is a really long range to scan. Cancelling the job does not to the job... I have a neverending spinning wheel... Restarting the services or the server did not do the job... As seen here as well: Network Sonar…
In Network Sonar, I would like to have the new devices automatically assigned to a predefined group. ie: * I have multiple discovery tasks that programmed for every segment of my network... a Group is configured for every segment and all devices in the segment are assigned to it. * I could have a group where all recently…
Hey Thwack! Newbie here with a first post! Scenario: I have an MPLS mesh network connecting 21 satellite locations, each of which have a /24 management network for network devices. I currently do not have a separate polling engine at each site (should I? Separate discussion...). Question: My questions is, would it be…
When modifying a Network Sonar Discovery, there is no way to delete an unused subnet. The only option is to de-activate it. Please add a delete button somewhere (either next to "add a seed router" or a red "X" at the end of each line)...
Like most IT shop, we document our network using the /xx notation instead of the full xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx subnet mask. In NPM Network Sonar Wizard (Like many other places), I cannot use the slash notation and have to use my memory or a subnet calculator to enter the correct information (possibility of error). Please add a way…
Network Sonar already is fairly feature rich but in our environment, having the ability to specify IP ranges and use widcards would be a definate plus. E.g. 10.1-20.4.0 = All B-Classes between 10.1.0.0 and 10.20.0.0 that include 10.x.4.0. Currently this needs 20 individual entries 10.1.*.240-250 = All C-Classes but only…
Is there a way we can change this behavior to reflect the username of the account that is actually adding the node(s)? I have a few reports that track user activity for node and interface management (adds/deletes), but this only seems to be accurate for nodes/interfaces added individually. When a user adds a range of new…
We have a setup where each site has it's own discovery profile which isn't exactly uncommon I'm sure. A huge amount of time could be saved if these profiles could be configured to automatically apply values to discovered nodes. Post/Zip codes could be automatically added, devices on a development network could be tagged as…
I have noticed with the last update (10.7) that scheduled discovery jobs can no longer be run manually. If I try, I get the error "Discover Now is not supported for cron scheduled discovery profiles". We have a large number of remote sites and a fair bit of "churn". If I know changes have happened, I like to do a manual…
