As a linux-geek, I approve. I'm stuck in a windows-shop, so I'm very glad to see some real CLI magic.

A bit sarcastic, but the points manage to hit the right nerves. Good work!

Yeah, that one was rough jim.couch@loves.com!

I think I need that lego Death Star for my cubicle....

1. Probably SQL... (Not the DB guy...) 2. Pretty sure this is left to the infrastructure team 3. again, not the DB guy, so no idea. 4. No idea... again.

I kinda like that approach. Seems like it'd be easier to implement/manage.

I'm pretty sure day 7 was the easiest. I actually didn't have to look at the hint!

You may have followed the wrong account. I was following <at> solarwinds, but instead I needed to follow <at> SWI_network

HOW IS THIS NOT A THING ALREADY!!? You're definitely a genius, Brian Whelton.

Boy, I am getting none of these right. I'm definitely not a server-guy!

How does that work?

Excellent!

It probably will, depending on whether or not that protocol is recognized. (it may fall under unknown traffic). It should though. Most traffic is easily identified, especially when that traffic is something the user shouldn't be doing.

I consider myself lucky to have seen it. It was kinda neat, although I did think that thwack was broken for a bit!

If you look under the endpoints in question, you can see what protocols they're using. If you can navigate to the layer-3 interface (vlan, etc) the end-users in question are using, you can see what the most used protocols are.

With the 4570's and the 6509's you may need a supervisor card to enable netflow.

What exactly was the issue?

That was the right answer. Thanks, HolyGuacamole!

Just found this. Good work, your fix worked great for me. You should mark this question as answered.

Well, it really depends on what you want to monitor. Are you trying to monitor hardware health and other things that you'd need SNMP for? That's really dependent on whether or not the device is SNMP capable. OR Are you just trying to ping it and see if it's up?

I'm confused -- I attempted to do this one, but it asked if I was a federal employee (which, I am not); but the link is for an employee in the public sector. Help please?

Another Solution is to email them at customerservice <at> solarwinds <dot> com, just FYI for everyone.

Have you checked to make sure that you're using the correct encryption (i.e. the same DES or AES configuration on both ends)?

I figured this one out. You need to use the URI that looks like: https://<server_name>:17778/SolarWinds/InformationService/v3/Json/swis://<serverfqdn>/Orion/Orion.Nodes/N…

So, you're saying it's a mistake/error, bcarpenter?

I'm still trying to figure out what happened. Anybody know what's up?

What kind of switch are you running at your core? If it doesn't support netflow then it won't work.

Have you tried netflow?

From what I understand about Cisco ASAs, they aren't built to have write access via SNMP, as that can be a security hazard in itself... but that's more hearsay than actually-researched-info. andegamo

NPM 10.7 Supports SNMP v1, 2c and 3.
