Does anyone know if there's an option to do this in bulk (e.g. apply this config to all access ports)? The reason I ask is that I have over 100K interfaces that I monitor for UDT purposes, but I could care less to know if they go up or down. I'd like to apply this config to all access ports, but not trunk ports. Any ideas?

If that's the case, then they didn't do a very good job. I struggled for the good part of the day to make a custom report yesterday. I posted up on the forums several times to see if others could help. Finally I logged into the server, and was easily able to create the report I wanted using the report writer.

I too would like to see native Solarwinds support for this product. You'd think with as big as SW is they'd have quicker support for adding new devices. I know companies like AKiPS garuntee 2 week turn-around time to add new device support.

I guess a better title might have been report filtering, in order to allow us to filter what devices we want to run the canned reports on. This is honestly the one area of Solarwinds that makes me want to look at other possible solutions. NCM and UDT are such beautiful products, but then one of the most important features…

Currently for my 9300's, I have it sending all system logs to Solarwinds. I then built syslog based alarms via *firepower* to trigger an email to our group. The only downside of this is that I'll get occasional emails about a single CPU at high utilization, but its not a ton of messages or anything so I deal with it.

What if we're monitoring logs through another system. Having an alert in solarwinds would be helpful. Seems like it should already have this feature without having to use solarwinds as your syslog server.

Yes, if I RDP to the server I can use Putty from there to SSH to the device. It's very odd why it can't SSH via NCM.

OK, So I found the best method that worked for me was to RDP into the server and use the report writer. It was pretty easy to make the report from there and it looks to be working correctly.

Hmm... If you're under the 20 characters I'm not sure what that could be. Ours was definitely due, to too many characters in the password.

What's odd is that I don't even see my 10G or 100G interfaces. I can live with the rest of the extra un-needed stuff as long as it at least showed these.

We have all interface monitored, up, down, and admin down. 

I've recently run into this issue as well. While this is good advice for someone with a small network, there's got to be a way to do this in mass rather than clicking on each individual device looking for these ghost interfaces. I have around 2K nodes and it's going to be a pain in the ass if I have to go through each one…

Device Template: Cisco IOS-1.3.6.1.4.1.9 Also tried SSH Auto, SSH v1, SSHv2. Same results. Test Failed. Connection Refused. Though non 3850 switches down stream of this device on the same management subnet work just fine. So far I have this issue with all three locations that I have a 3850 acting as a building router. Jan…

It might just depend on the device type on how it responds to SNMP if the interface is down. If I've found one thing out through solarwinds its that Cisco is *** for standardization in SNMP. Things like machine type returns in a crap ton of different formats, hell some just report back as "Cisco".......

I would think that a Cisco 3560 should be supported. WS-C3560CG-8PC-S

I don't think so. Have you tried logging into it directly with the same credentials. Also try using the SSH window for the device in solarwinds and hit it from their too with the same credentials. I believe this is the bug I was running into Cisco Bug: CSCvh55744 - SSH password length restricted to 25 for avoiding one of…

Yes, since restarting the services on the additional polling server it has been working properly again.

This is definitely not good. Since I have 2136 devices that get their configs backed up, it looks like I'm going to be missing over 400 backup configs. 

I'm using the 1.3.6.1.4.1.21239.2.2.1.6.1 OID, but I keep getting odd results. If I SNMPwalk the device from my linux box it correctly reports 82. If i use the snmpwalk.exe tool on the Orion server, it also correctly reports 82. However, when I setup a graph for my Geists, all the other options (e.g. humidity, airflow,…

This is closer to what I'm looking for, though my numbers seem to be way off. It doesn't seem to report any 10G or 100G interfaces. Though it does have a quite a bit of random speed interfaces. There also looks to be duplicate speeds with different count numbers which is confusing me. InterfaceTypeDescription…

Would my boss be able to change the time frame from within the view, or does that time need to be adjusted within the report creator?

two more questions if you don't mind. I'm trying to add a AND not acknowledged to this. Do you know what the o.Alert(whatever) is? Also where does everyone go to see a list of all these database objects?

Thanks, that did the trick.

I've regen'd the crypto key. What's odd is that I can SSH to it from windows, linux and MAC. Just not from Solarwinds. Even stranger is that if I use the ssh function in the device summary I can SSH to it from there as well. It seems that whatever function its using to SSH for NCM just isn't working.

We are doing an initial setup of Solarwinds. These look to be actual mismatches between the running config and startup config from when our previous config manager (Prime) didn't write to startup config. I was looking to push out a write script to all of these devices, but I see no easy way to select all of my devices with…

We aren't polling any AP's with NCM since our wireless network uses Wireless Prime. Our naming convention is like this 123-456-cis1 (e.g. building number, room number, cisco switch 1). So far the problem looks to be affecting devices that are being polled from a newly installed polling server. Currently troubleshooting.

Prior to our upgrade we were able to backup all configs under one job. I have over 2K devices on my network and that number fluctuates daily. I really don't want to have to be creating and modifying backup jobs everyday to get a product I paid for to work correctly. Also as an update, my job that has been running since…

I too have recently noticed this. It seems my nightly backups gets to about the 75% finished range, then slows to a crawl. I red an article saying there was a bug that can do this when you enable logging on the backups. So I created a clone job to do the same backup, without logging. It has now been sitting on 80% for the…
