Endpoints are missing Hostnames.

  • Sean is right, hostnames are gathered through reverse dns lookup.  To add to that Hostname can also be gathered via powershell script to the dns server as well as a few other methods when talking with the DNS

    server.

    For basic troubleshooting, kindly run the following commands below from the Orion Server(Server wherein the IPAM/UDT is installed)

    From Powershell

    [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostEntry("xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx")

    From command prompt

    ping -a XX.XX.XX.XX

    nslookup XX.XX.XX.XX

    XX.XX.XX represents the IP address

    Below are sample screenshots.
