    in Integrated MAC Address Lookup Comment by bit_herder May 2014
  • I agree here. The ASA is a security device first and foremost. SNMP can be considered a security risk, as could exposing IP/MAC Addresses. Now, I know it functions as a router on many levels, but it is not one. I'm assuming many of these decisions are made to help better secure the networks it serves. Another issue that I…

  • Hi Jiri, I'm finalizing my Orion/NTA/NCM/Device Tracker implementation at the moment (getting the MAC addresses identified in DT, ensuring all configs are backed up, etc.) All my alerts and flows are working.

If there's any way to improve on the device template, I'm happy to help out. So far, I've just configured SSH as the script and login…
    in How can I get a true configuration from a Cisco ASA and WLC? Comment by bit_herder May 2014
  • Hi Jiri, Thank you very much for your response and resources, I'll be trying the templates today. I've been using SolarWinds for about a decade now, and this is the first issue I've had with NCM since I've been the module. I spoke with Cisco support. This may be very helpful for all you others expecting SNMP write…

  • Hi Leon, Thanks for the helpful advice. It's been about 3 years since I've set up Orion out of the box and I doing it again for a new organization! I remember an installation order that was recommended for fresh installs. Is there a published order? I searched twack, but couldn't find a definitive source. I will be…
