One current limitation of NPM relates to the ability to monitor thin wireless access points (at least when they're connected to a Cisco wireless controller). Currently when those APs go offline, they go into an "Unknown" status for one polling cycle and then disappear entirely from the platform. As I understand it,…
Has anyone had an issue with getting the built-in "Thin AP down" alert to work? We are migrating to Cisco for wireless, using 5500 controller and 2800 AP's.

Idea: - allow management of Thin AP through the WebUI - include the ability to…
We have a very large Aurba install. I get lots of AP down alerts when we have a switch failure. I'd like the Thin dependencies automatically generated from the LLDP data SELECT DISTINCT AP.DisplayName + ' switch dependency' as Name , N.URI as ParentUri, AP.URI as ChildURI FROM Orion.NodeLldpEntry NL Inner Join orion.Nodes…
Show what port in which the access point is connected. This is but a simple request. You know where all the access points are, now show me the port in which it is plugged.
I'm trying to create an inventory report of our equipment, including serial numbers. I want to use NPM, as that is the place where all active equipment is listed. We're also monitoring our wireless installation, including the Cisco wireless controllers and through that we can see all the Thin APs (that are also…
