  • We have something similar going on. There are remote access routers at some people's homes. They connect with a site-to-site VPN, so they are discover-able in our network discovery tasks. Technicians don't want to get pager calls on these when they go offline, especially in the middle of the night. Some of the users often…
  • In the alert itself. The part of the alert in SolarWinds that is passing the parameters to the ticketing system. I might try to change out what is being passed to the ticket system. This is just an example of modifying what I am sending to the NetPerfMon log. So if the system is passing something like this: Interface…
  • I am not exactly sure what parameter you are trying to pass. It looks like the Interface Caption which to me looks like a concatenation of Interface Description and Interface Alias with that special character in between. If it is Interface Caption, you could switch those out for the description an alias, getting the same…
  • This query works perfectly for a couple of nodes that have flapping interfaces right now. I just need to figure out how to modify these alert and reset triggers so that it can filter out one of my devices. Specifically, I have a need for these different devices to go to different support teams. In other alerts, we direct…

  • As far as I can tell, this is just an automated way to detect a device type, or manually change if you want or need to. It looks like the only choices are Server, Network and Other. There isn't anything about that field on the Admin Manual I have been reading. I am sure there is a way to use this to our advantage though.…
  • That setting is in the account settings, either individual or group.
  • I have had similar issues but with a different model switch that is not stacked. Maybe this is an IOS level issue and not limited to the model. I am running 12.2(55)SE3 on 2 of the most affected switches. 12.2(58)SE2 on the 3rd of the top 3 switches with the transmit discard errors. We have never had a complaint from the…
  • Depending on what you want to import, you may want to look at what the "Define monitoring settings" has to offer. In there you can tell it to import only trunks, or add filters of various sorts, the same as you would for a manual import. It isn't completely perfect, but it does work. The advanced filtering options allow…
