We currently use Idera and have done an extension comparison, the tools are equal in every functional way that we have compared. The big plus for us is the DPM integration to Orion, and that's why we are evaluating making a change. It always comes down to getting budget approval. D

torydavenport​, I'm sure by now you've seen this document: https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/webhooks/#!introduction/overview I've just started investigating this, but it appears to be a simple JSON formatted syslog message sent to your Orion server. If this is in fact the case, then it should be simple enough to…

eblackburn​, Welcome to the club! Unfortunately, the node and interface tables in your Orion SQL instance are not the same table. Any custom property you add to the node table is completely separate from the interface. There are some SQL gurus on here that might be able to create a script to help you, but there's no way to…

I haven't addressed that yet, but I agree. However, my immediate concern is getting net-snmp to report the correct ifSpeed, so it doesn't get overwritten. Incidentally, I'm on V10 SP1... Dwyane

byrona, Did you (or anyone else for that matter) ever figure something out for this? I have NPM 10.6 and NTA 3.11...I don't need to actually bill anyone, but I need to reflect the data in the same manner for management. They would like a single report per location with: (by week) Total bandwidth used Total Rx Total Tx Peak…

Chris, Thanks for the response! I'm not used to people telling me I make sense and have good ideas. :) I will look forward to this feature in future releases. Thanks again. Dwyane

212​, Good luck figuring the SWQL out, I'm learning as well, and let us know the result (looks like something I could use). That said, this post might have some code you can use. Particularly the piece around "TOP 1". It sounds like your code is displaying all the collected values in the table. Reality is, you just want…

There was a perfect explanation of this in another post I read today, but now I can't find it. Basically it said, Group Availability is a "binary" result - meaning, if all the members are down, the group is down...otherwise, if any member is up, then the group is up. So, if you have a group with 100 members and 99 are down…

enderaz​, If I understand your request, you are looking for a custom view displaying the "Percent Utilization" resource for certain critical interfaces within your organization? I'm assuming critical interfaces and not a full list of all your interfaces. D

lbrowne, I have to remind myself on a daily basis, that sometimes in the world of web design, simple is always best! Here are some favorite links I use every time I want to change my display. I ALWAYS refer back to a display from jbaulsir in the posting NOC View/Dashboard - is this available for NPM, APM, & Netflow? It's…

Incidentally, there are several feature requests out there you should search for and vote on, like this one:

stuartd​, You are correct on each "obvious" fact. The only additional steps you could take would be to assign a static IP to the APs and enable SNMP. That would solve for your DHCP issue, but cause another admin task during implementation. And SNMP would allow you to enable SNMP polling and pull the serial number among…

What kind of Nexus 5000 (5596, etc.)? And what version of NX-OS? Have you looked through the bug/caveat list? D

t0ta11ed74​, Based on your responses above, it appears you are looking for an automated way to detect "important" ports from regular user ports; this way you can automatically monitor them differently. To my knowledge, there is no such automated mechanism (out of the box). Further, "most" folks only monitor important ports…

CTata I've not tinkered with the new NOC views yet, so I can't really say why you are experiencing this issue. However, as an alternative, if you are unable to get it working as desired...something I've used in the past that works pretty well...Firefox with the Tab Rotator add-on. You build normal views the way you want…

deepaksingh, * Go to your list of "Managed Nodes." * Locate the node(s) with interfaces you wish to "unplug." * Expand the node (there should be a "+" in from of the node). * Select the interface you wish to configure. * Select "Edit Properties" from the top menu. * Under the interface name, in "General" information, you…

deepaksingh, You can configure the desktop interfaces as "unpluggable." This was specifically built for this purpose. Under "Managed Nodes," find your switch and configure each "desktop" attached interface as "Unpluggable." Dwyane

The sky is the limit on what you can do, here's examples to review to spark your imagination: Show us a NOC view and (don't ) get 500 thwack points (we still want to see, points no longer awarded) D

Michal, I see you are working on the Forward/Reverse pairing, that will be nice. What is the possibility of adding something that pairs internal IPs (IPv4 or IPv6) with a corresponding NAT (IPv4 or IPv6)? Ex.: Server A has internal IP 10.1.1.1 in DNS Zone inside.com and is associated to external NAT 4.1.1.1 in DNS Zone…

asanl, This has been an on again, off again issue with Cisco for many years. Just perform a simple Google search for "cisco high cpu snmp" and it comes back with a lot of information. I've not seen this issue in recent IOS versions as much, so maybe you have some devices with older code? Typically, the high CPU is caused…

Asking the obvious first, and assuming this was already done: SNMP is enable on the WLC? Your NPM server is allowed SNMP access? SNMP polling is used for this WLC? When you listed the resources, you checked "wireless"? D

As tonyled stated, it is all scripted. In NCM, you "execute" that script. The contents of the script are the same commands you would use execute via CLI. Your NCM server is already a TFTP server as well, TFTP is installed during the NCM installation process, and the default TFTP directory is C:/TFTP Root. So, place your…

Unfortunately this is no native way to use the stencils. The best option is to convert an existing Visio to a .jpeg and import it as a background, then drag and drop your elements to the appropriate locations. You'll also need to change the element icon to "no shape." That said, there are some shapes that are close and I…

valentinej@grangeinsurance.com​, The initial "test" when adding a node is to ensure either your SNMP settings are correct, or your WMI user is correct; depending on the polling type you selected. If you are using SNMP (no longer recommended for Windows), then please make sure your SNMP community strings are correct. If you…

To my knowledge there is not 1 SNMP table that you can pull for this data, it's a collection of multiple SNMP data points. Without a table that you can pull, it will be very difficult to create a report. Here's a list of all the data points: CISCO-DHCP-SNOOPING-MIB | IPHost Network Monitor You could build a UnDP to collect…

No idea what the actual OIDs are for these, but NPM has them listed as just "Cisco." WLC7510 AP2602 WS-C2960C-12PC-L WS-C3560C-8PC-S

Hi, David...Welcome to the club! So, one of the really cool features in Orion is the Universal Device Poller (UnDP). I can't say for certain if the MIBs are in Orion already, but you can use UnDP to build custom pollers to collect and display any information you want. There are tons of examples on Thwack of this very…

Without seeing the interface name or type, I'm making an assumption here that the interface is likely a 10GB interface or loopback interface. * If 10GB interface, NPM probably didn't discover the interface speed on it, and set it to the default 10MB. You'll have to edit the interface in NPM, and use the custom speed field…

Hi, Was archiving configured? I have NCM configured to retain the latest 10 copies of every config file from every device, and it then purges old configs (any over 10) from the DB. I also have NCM configured to archive a copy of every single config file into a secondary flat file system/disk on the server. This file system…

No image to share, but I have a question for those that configured World Map... How are you reflecting AWS/Azure/Google or any other cloud service since there are no lat/long to reference? And a challenge for Solarwinds Dev: is there a way to put such a thing on World Map?
