C881W-A-K9 routers running 15.1 and 15.2 are also failing to poll correctly. However, I can confirm that C881SRSTW and C891W routers do poll correctly. D

Hi, davebryan37​, I'm not sure where the .csv import process came from for IPAM, but that's not 100% accurate. You simply configure a subnet, or (my preferred method) use the SuperNet Wizard to create your subnets. During the configuration, there is a configurable variable, that is set to every 4 hours by default, to…

pablo007‌, There are 3 canned reports in NPM already (last 7 days, last month, and this month). Can you use one of those to get the information you need? If you want to report on only certain switches, use those reports as examples and only choose the devices you want. D

Scott, Probably the #1 biggest complaint among everyone here is DB performance. Just a few years ago support required a physical SQL server, preferably with fiber channel attached storage. Recently, virtual SQL servers have been caught up and can perform very well, so they are now supported. You are now asking if a…

remi f, The correct OID begins at 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.6.1. However, as I suspected, there are CPU or memory (hardware) related OIDs in the list for these devices. D

remi f, Please post this in the NPM forum for more visibility. That said, I have (had) some of these in my environment and they don't support SNMP very well. These switches are Cisco's way of trying to get into the small office environments and compete with the D-Link, Netgear, Linksys stuff that is on the market. And most…

Another possible cause...did anyone perform SQL maintenance on your DB? Or, is the DB having issues?

The best piece of advice I can offer is to use the Upgrade Advisor. It will tell you exactly what you need to do. D

This is fantastic! I recently had to brush the dust off my HTML memories and created "pretty" alerts for our team. I do have a question however... I found a "bug" (for lack of a better word) where you can't maintain the HTML formatting in the "message" field when you are creating the alert, you have to smash all the lines…

At the very bottom of your report, add: WHERE (Interface.Caption LIKE 'Internet') This will pull any interface that has the word "Internet" in the description. Just change "Internet" to whatever word you are looking for. D

Jens, Your group is based on the elements within it. You have 4 nodes in your group, therefore, the group status is based on those. If the status of that switch is to go "red" because an interface is down, that status will then roll up into the group status because it changes the element (node) in the group. Otherwise, you…

Jeremy, Scott's accurate, it all depends on the device and DNS. I'm pretty sure (if I remember correctly) Orion pulls sysname first, then DNS. Example: * Router "hostname" configured with supernode357 and "ip domain-name" is blank, Orion pulls/displays supernode357 during the discovery process. * Router "hostname"…

solvitec ecuador​, Please review and vote up this feature request. You are seeing the same issue we are all having. D

mprice501, I agree, your router is being overrun by some network device. Something that might help you isolate what it is...Network Traffic Analyzer (NTA). Do you have this available to you? If not, you can still get the info, it will just be a little more manual. If you have NTA, apply this config to your router (I would…

I suspect you are not seeing a change because the node is in maintenance mode. Suspend collecting data or mute alerts for nodes in maintenance - SolarWinds Worldwide, LLC. Help and Support

jasonflory‌, There are 3 methods I use for this functionality: * sean.martinez‌ describes one method by which you manually modify the interfaces discovered by NPM. * Cisco CLI command "bandwidth" This is my preferred method because the "bandwidth" command is also used by QoS to determine queuing percentages. And when I…

In the NTA settings, check "Enable NetBIOS..." It's a little misleading, but that does the DNS lookups.

jrsitman​, You've posted this is the User Group forum. Please place this request in the NTA forum to get better visibility. D

Welcome! Let's start with the obvious, what SolarWinds products and modules did you purchase? Next, Solarwinds has gone to great development lengths to add some auto-discovery techniques to assist you, but there is nothing better than personally knowledge of the network to ensure everything is monitored, and nothing is…

If I remember correctly on older versions, once you configure/enable SNMP on these, you had to reboot to get the settings to apply (it wasn't documented anywhere, but needed to be done). It was on older versions of hardware and code, but it might be an option.

If you are using the latest NPM 12.3: Node Downtime with Duration and Minimum Length Filtering D

I agree. I've asked for this feature in the past as well. I like the idea of having an "expandable" (a + in front) interface view for the port-channel. I see the port-channel on the main view, but can expand (click the +) the port-channel to see the individual interfaces; similar to the way the VM tab/Vitualization Assets…

I realize this is a 5 year old request, but I'm hoping to "reinvigorate" the idea (@bumpsquad). Can this be done now in 12.2? I didn't see an FR, is there one? I'm happy to create one... D

@jawwad05, I've done this in my organization, but you are correct, I have different user IDs. And actually, I had AD Groups (SW_Group_1, SW_Group_2, etc.) built for each team and configured the views per group using Account Limitations. This does several things for you: * You aren't using a shared user account - bad…

I know you requested N7 or N5 with FEX, but I uploaded N9396 with FEX...sorry, all I got for you.

To add a device to a group, you have to actually manage that device. You are setup like me and I'm not able to add them to groups either. The only option is to configure a static IP on the LAPs, and enable SNMP...then add them to NPM. This impacts your license count, so if you aren't "unlimited" it will add up quickly. D

The answer is..."It depends on what you want to do with it." This tool is: * useful for consolidating all your IP spreadsheets into 1 place. * useful for scanning your network periodically to maintain an accurate list. * useful for telling you when a DHCP scope is almost full. This tool can: * centrally manage all your DNS…

You have to configure syslog on the device to send a trap when the device configuration is changed, then create an alert based on that trap that initiates a configuration download. I believe this is documented in the admin guides, but I'm having a hard time finding that exact reference. You can start here, thought: Alerts…
