got it sorted lads cheers i checked on ACS failed attempts logs and could see the Orion NCM account failing, so i got the engineer who set it up to change to correct password then it could connect to the devices, altho the enable passwords vary from device to device cheers for your help

thanks RIchard for your help and informative posts, i understand them all no probs so will try tomorrow and let you know thanks again Jamie

the NCM is built on the box with the ip addresss 10.10.10.179, and both ips are included in an access list under the logging source interface and the vty lines so dont think that should be an issue.i never built the box just a contractor who has started and if i fix this it looks good on me.u think then Richard turn on…

i have its SSH and access list under vty lines is gettign matches for orion box ip address i.e 80 permit ip host 10.110.10.179 any (50 matches)

ok found ur menu instructions on web gui but its same rror from web browser gui, as you can see from my screenshot it is talking/polling device but not backing config up. access lists get matches and enable password correct for SSH

hi jiri can you see my reply above and update please im going to raise another suport ticket to as i find it so hard to get an answer to this

Hi Jiri i have the templates installed on my solarwinds box and the templates are backing up my running configs perfectly, all of which are version 10. (something, various flavours) , i also have the template for v11 installed to ready to change when we upgrade this month.......i revert back to my question i want to test…

ignore last post now Darryl user muppetry lol .i have attached server side gui now so where i go from here?cheers

hi darryl thanks for your reply however i cant see the "actions/validate login" from the menu, i have attached two screenshots in jpeg format

Hi Jiri i would prefer not to post support ticket number as i dont want to get anyone into bother and as it happens i find the solarwinds suppport for my company very impressive, its just the 90% that gets me , hence the reason i want to do a test this week in ym work to report the findings i can take this offline if you…

hi michal has there been any further developments on improvign IPAM regards this thread.or is it still to increase "transient period" to infinite time and manually edit reserved ips in ipam to reflect accurately the usage on your ips on all subnets i have a lot of linux boxes with AIX firewalls on the servers which dont…

WE don't use dhcp in IPAM either, we have dhcp servers aside.i just want IPAM to reflect accurately once I scan a subnet, will changing transient to "30" make any impact to my issue?

hi darren thanks for this , i look for that option on the solarwinds gui, or u know where it is? remember is backing up configs for some of my switch nodes, il let you know tomorrow when i try in work cheers jamie

Hi Networking tool very good suggestion and very infomative and well explained post .thanks for this

HI deverts thanks for info on the 4 hourly scan, and reply.everything network wise I,e firewall rules are in place on the checkpoints between the diff zones or I wouldn't be scanning any ips on all my subnets.when I mention AIX firewalls these re actual firewalls on servers I.e unix/Linux boxes.i can live with that I.e…

has anyone successfully backed up their F5 loadbalancer and if so what files is it on the BIG IP F5 box?i bleieve it may be 2 il keep looking meantime

Hi Andy thnaks for your replies however i think you are misunderstanding my point, i am successfully backing up the 11 F5 boxes on our network daily however i want to test one i.e install f5 on a vm ware machine and import one of the files from my daily backups.how do u go about this was my question? also the officicla…

RUnning this command from the command line u mean?

out transient IP setting is set to 7 days?is this default?

anyone with any suggestions that has solarwinds knowledge? many thanks

so is it better mag change default setting for transient ip to shorter value I.e 1 or 2 days?as opposed to default of 7 will this reflect the subnets more accurately when doing scans
