getting trouble while adding stack switch in NPM

kumar07 over 4 years ago

Hello everyone,

I'm new to Solarwinds can someone help me to add stack switch in solarwinds.

Scenario:

We have new office in which we need to add mutiple switches, for example

Switch1- IP: 10.10.10.1

Switch1: (stack switch)

Switch2 - IP: 10.10.20.2

Switch2 - (Stack switch)

As per above scenario we need to add two switch having same name with single ip address (which is stack switch), need help on this to add into solarwinds.

Thanks in advance.

What brand of switches? Most Cisco switch stacks it handles on its own, but it doesn't handle each switch separately - but as a stack. Even has a tab that shows the switch and power stacking configuration on the boxes in a stack.
I believe most brands of switches are managed via a single IP for the stack. I would think even if Orion didn't handle other brands stacks as elegantly as they have the 3850's, that they would at least reveal all the interfaces via SNMP.
