We came up with our own little web front end. This only took a couple hours and is good enough for now, but if SW doesn't come up with an IP Address Management solution for NPM, we are either going to have to write our own or purchase one already out there. I also don't think just pulling the data from the EE toolset is…

I too am interested in this. I checked the add on section and don't see anything posted yet :(.

Did you ever have any luck with this? Actually I had mine working, but then with a recent update now the scheduler is done via the web interface. Ever since then it just emails a pdf showing the login screen. I have NPM setup to use windows authentication. When I step through the wizard to create a schedule of an existing…

The image is broken for me as well, but my links are the same in both browsers. I did notice in the source that might be wrong: image src="\NetPerfMon\images\Small-Map.gif" Shouldn't it be img src= ...... ? Maybe IE just recognizes it is an image tag and Firefox doesn't. Probably one of those html standards deals.

Map <--> Node details <--> Map web navigation I would like to be able navigate back and forth between nodes and a map containing nodes without using a browser back button. For example, say you start with a overall map, then go down to a state map, then uner that have maps of sites in that state. A site map shows all/some…

If this has not been mentioned, how about a "sub group" field for the reports. Would help with organizing the reports on the web interface I think. Main Group ..Sub Group1 ....report1 ....report2 ..Sub Group2 ....report1 and so on.

Guru helped me out getting my grouping going too. I do mine by network devices, servers, printers and then under each one group by location. There have been a few threads in the last month or so on this you should be able to find and get more info.

When upgrading, do you use the full download ver w/ sql, NPM and docs or just the 71mb ver w/ npm and docs only? Thanks

Dang, nevermind. I can change the DB, but it seems on the next poll it changes it back to Cisco. Help SW, how can this be fixed?

Figured it out but not sure why this is happening. The Cisco 1242 Access Points are getting a "Machine Type" classification as "Cisco" which is set to Node Details. My 1231s are set to a Machine Type of Cisco 1200 Access Point. I found this by comparing a 1231 and 1242 in the DB manager. So I know how to manualy fix it,…

quote:Originally posted by jarcher Try from the web interface: Click 'Admin' - 'Views by Device Type' - 'Nodes' (then click 'Edit') Change the 'Cisco 1242' to "Wireless Access Point." Submit Jeremy The only thing AP wise in my list is Cisco 1200 Access Point and it is already set to Wireless Access Point.

Hi, i have another question..... Since i upgraded to 9.5 my Node uptime report does not seem to work anymore.... SELECT Nodes.Site_code,VendorIcon,Caption,Ip_Address, DateDiff(hour,Nodes.LastBoot,GetDate()) AS HoursUp FROM Nodes WHERE DateDiff(hour,Nodes.LastBoot,GetDate()) < '24' ORDER BY 1,5 ASC In the reportmaker under…

I opened up the DB Manager on the server and the below works giving me a list. SELECT TOP 10 * FROM [dbo].[Interfaces] where Caption Like '%MPLS%' I see in my original post I was using *, but when I changed to % I still get the same error, but it seems to work in DB manager.

This was a new install for me and I looked at the Reset message macro and it seems to be correct "below ${Reset}" and I did not see any other variables in the admin guide to use to call this value. I know I have my value set to 5% and the rest message should always read "below 5%".

I have seen the same thing and am interested in a solution or explanation too. Ours is mostly at night when our backups run, a 100mb nic will show a peak of 112mb or so.

We use Sprint for our MPLS cloud and I'm guessing they have icmp 11 disabled/blocked. We can see their edge router, but no other routing inside the cloud. So we are blind in the Sprint cloud between our routers. I doubt they would enable/allow that on all their devices for us .

We have a VPN tunnel from a PIX to a Concentrator and I have looked at both using the list resources and do not see any vpn tunnel interfaces. How does one go about getting this setup to monitor the traffic on a VPN tunnel? Thanks

Hi there -- can anyone confirm if Orion NPM (no wireless module) supports "simple" SNMP monitoring of interfaces etc.? I see from other threads that there is discussion around using custom pollers to gather various information about lightweight APs but I am not interested in that (at this point.) Thanks, We have the…

Never mind, it looks like changing it on one resource keeps that change across the board. I thought I had checked this already before I posted but I guess not.

The way I have my main page laid out is on the left I have 3 Node List - Custom Grouping & Filtering sections. One is for my network devices, one for servers, one for printers and named them accordingly. I used custom property editor and created two new fields, one for location and one for device type. This allows me to…

quote:Originally posted by clanger BakerD I have this exact same problem and an open ticket with SW support for this going on three + weeks now. The account with restricted view that has the problem for me is restricted to a list of specific nodes (about 90). I have a custom MIB poller looking at an OID on some cisco gear…

Could this possibly be a bug? It doesn't matter how I format a IP address pattern limitation, I still get that error. I tried * *.* 1*.* or 2*.* all the way to 9*.* This is the best way for me to limit what accounts see unless there is a way to say allow all except type filter.

Ok, I have narrowed it down a little. The accounts not working have view limitations set by IP Address Pattern, but I have all our internal networks listed like xx.* or xxx.* This device's IP falls under one of those networks and so does the machine hosting our SQL DB.

NTOP, I think that is it. Man I have been busting my brain trying to remember that. I knew the name was something short and simple like nmap, snort etc. Yes, we checked out NetQos and right now too steep for us. It will be sweet once and if SW gets there :). Thanks for the help.

 Any no if this can be done or recommend any other network load/stress test programs out there? Thanks 

Just upgraded from 7.8 to 8.0.2 and our time exclusions for our reports are still working.

I would also like this feature. I know you can mouse over and then add the two values or just look at the lines and guesstimate, but it would be nice to have a third line showing the total. I have seen this done on PRTG graphs. Upper management doesn't want to have to look at a graph and add both in and out to get a total…

Ah I think I made some progress. So on my firewall I opened up port icmp type 11 as mentioned in some documentation and now I'm getting a lot more info. Looks like I will need to open that port to each IP on my internal network or just all together. What sort of security risks are there with allowing that traffic in? Still…
