  • True brute force...but a lot quicker than adding 100 switches and a mix mash of another 300 interfaces thru the web gui! Looks *ok* now....I'm only seeing transmit data on the charts...no receive data but I bet that's a 3rd poller type that I haven't added yet. I'll have to pull up my back-up old copy and look at that…

  • Me neither, it assumes that you have a predictable Description on each interface you want to monitor. When I'm on the switch configuring the interface I do not set a consistent description. (it's usually a comment on what's behind the port).

  • Background: I am gathering statistics on several switches and several interfaces on each switch. There are 3 tables involved in this. Dbo.Nodes -it contains Primary Key NodeID for each switch. Dbo.Interfaces contains Primary Key InterfaceID for each interface and foreign Key NodeID. Dbo.Pollers table has 2 lines for each…

  • If I have to do a Network Discovery on the client VLAN...can I just do the discovery and not import anything? (not managing clients in this tool).

  • Hey thanks for that link. I'm going to keep it and mull it over, however, at first glance it appears to need a predictable description on the interfaces that I want to monitor. Unfortunately, the various interfaces that I'm monitoring dont have consistent or predictable interface descriptions (the descriptions describe the…

  • I have this same issue. Any progress on an API where we can feed the switch IP and interfaces we want monitored? Right now I'm trying to bastardize a new dbo.Nodes and dbo.Interfaces table to have all my Nodes and associated interfaces that I want monitored without manually adding them all thru the (slow) GUI. They're in…

  • Let me ask you this for the End Host Port Lookup to work: Do I have to do a Network Discovery on my client vlan? (all laptops and desktops are in VLAN 100) (I have all my network switches in VLAN 200 and they're all imported into NCM/NPM with integration). I thought it just had to inventory the switches to get their layer…
