I'd like to weigh in on this as many of us have asked many times for this types of functionality. Solarwinds: Us admin types would really benefit from an Orion add-on which would accomplish the following: 1. Use a switchport mapper type ability to scan all the switches we have in Orion on an on-demand basis or scheduled…

You know, I see your first message said you exported like this: ip flow-export source Multilink 1 Was this Multilink 1 ip address the one you used to add this device to Orion....if not, it needs to be. You should export on the interface that Orion uses to do the SNMP polls, etc....

Well, if your seeing flows on the router...that's a good thing. You know flows are there. I would also do a SHOW IP ROUTE-CACHE FLOW and make sure its exporting the flows. Now, make double sure your export port is the same in Orion and the router. Check this in the ADMIN - Netflow setup area in Orion's web interface. Next,…

A full top XX page would be best....even if limited to top 10 or top 5.....Just like on the Orion Website Demo page (v1).

Well, I have two suggestions and a question: 1. Do a SHOW IP CACHE FLOW command and look at the top of the output. Do you see flows for the sub-interface in question? You may need to do this command a few times and study the output. If you do not see any flows for your sub-interface, Orion is not the problem. 2. Make sure…

Thanks Denny. We only complain because we like Solarwinds so much. I'd never take the time to complain if I truely didn't like my Orion. I also like that fact that you and Solarwinds actually listen to your customers and implement the suggestions.

Its set like this: Global SettingsKeep uncompressed data for 1 hours Keep compressed data for 15 days

We've switched to an all LWAPP environment and now our wireless module is useless. Please comment when you know how long until Solarwinds supports LWAPP. I know Cisco WLC's have plenty of readable MIBS....we just need the Solarwinds team to pull them all together.

Thanks for the update. Cisco introduced in 12.4 code the ability to monitor ingress and egress on the same interface....not just ingress as previously stated. Since all my routers run 12.4 code and are using these Netflow commands on the serial interfaces: ip flow ingress ip flow egress I wanted to make sure traffic…

Make sure your using the command "ip route-cache flow" For sub-interfaces, simply add the command to the primary interface....not the subs. The subs won't take it as you know. Adding it to the primary interface enables all the sub interfaces for NetFlow. In the Orion NetFlow setup area, make sure you add the primary and/or…

I moved to 8.1 and my 16GB database only took 15min to upgrade.....not hours.

 90% of it is Netflow. Even when I lowered the time interval to keep data, the database didn't shrink. I've been noticing my Solarwinds website is getting slower and slower. I'm assuming its the database size that's causing that.

I have to say that EVERYTIME I see someone say that a 'common' task has to be performed via a SQL custom script....it makes me wonder....why doesn't solarwinds add this as a normal function in the mgmt interface. Everyone needs to delete interfaces in mass at one time or another....and it seems like it should be easy to do…

I can already see all the conversations between hosts using these unknown ports, so I don't think its discarding them now. Its just that it marks the port numbers as unknown. Otherwise all the "other" data about the conversation is complete...ie hosts, bytes, times, etc...just no port numbers. Maybe someone can post a…

Netflow user from V1 days here. We use NTA almost exclusively for #1…real time conversation monitoring. We never look back more than two weeks.

Here's the perfect small config... ip flow-cache timeout active 1 ip flow-export source Loopback0 ip flow-export version 5 ip flow-export destination 10.245.8.36 9995 Then on your interfaces...I'll use two examples: interface FastEthernet0/0 ip route-cache flow ! ! interface Serial0/0/0 ip route-cache flow Notes: In the…

Sounds like a good idea.

When will Avaya call managers be supported so that we could use this product to track active VOIP calls...just like you can in Cisco's call manager.

I started this thread as I was struggling with my huge 132GB Orion DB. I knew the data was netflow related, I just couldn't figure out how to get rid of the old netflows. Finally, I ran a query on NETFLOWSUMMARY2. I found from the query it had netflow data dating back to May 2007 in it. No wonder my DB was so big. For some…

Cisco strongly recommends you do not poll your WLC SNMP with anything other than WCS. It may cause unexpected problems.

This has worked well for me on routers since SW released Netflow: ip flow-cache timeout active 1 ip flow-export source Loopback0 ip flow-export version 5 ip flow-export destination 10.x.x.x 9995 On ALL routed interfaces: ip route-cache flow

Problem Solved. Click the edit button on that view and add this to the FILTER: Unmanaged=0 That will prevent unmanaged nodes from appearing in these lists.

I fixed my problem by doing the following. 1. Found the last full install .EXE of AM and re-ran it. 2. It detected it was still installed and presented me with three option, re-install, repair, or uninstall. 3. I chose uninstall and it cleaned up the whole mess.
