Can anyone provide steps on what they do when this happens on their network?

in My Network Latency Bar Chart Showed a Spike but now What? Comment by kange0010 January 2018

rschroeder, Thank you for the info but this was already done. I double checked it and went through the motions of logging out and in just to see and there is still no option. I checked all the other menu bars for this option and it just isn't there. Does this have to do with the evaluation package? Then again how can I…

johnsja, Thank you for the link but have you tried to follow these steps? I still can't find or add Performance Analysis to the menu bar. Would you be able to provide a more detailed approach with pictures? I went into my user account, I clicked on My Dashboards and configure but nowhere can I find Performance Analysis. I…

Thank you for responding. Here is my picture down below. This is what I have in my syslog. I have only 1 server 2016, 1 cisco switch, and 1 end device or PC. Very small lab but why no logs? I made sure in Services that Solarwinds Syslog was running.

in Where are my Logs in Solar Winds? Comment by kange0010 December 2017

Hi d09h, There were 2 OIDs i assigned and all of them seem to bring back results for all EIGRP instances. I take it that I need to just modify a custom table to only show the ones I want. I do have another question though. One of the tables came up with this results: I created a Universal device poller to monitor EIGRP and…

Hi mandevil, Thank you for the insight. I am more a network guy but fairly new to Solarwinds. I work for a company that already had Solarwinds implemented before I arrived. When I log into the web console I can see that DPA is in the ribbon so it must already be installed? How do I go about trying to use it? Is it a…

I was informed that this depends on Cisco.

Hi bkyle, Thank you for the link but I have already seen the demo. I wanted to know if anyone has already used or is using NTM and if they know for a fact that this is my solution to what I'm looking for. I am trying to find the answers before attempting the trial since it'll take time for me to get approvals and what not.

in Is NTM my solution? Comment by kange0010 June 2018

so.hemanth, How do I enable? I am currently working with a small lab that includes 1 cisco switch, 1 PC, and 1 Server 2016.

in Why do I not have any Logs in Syslogs? Comment by kange0010 December 2017

Derik, I am very new to Solarwinds. I have not set up any forwarding to my syslog server. How would I go about doing that? Do I first need to create traps?

hi rharland2012, In the edit node section for the polling method, i did what you stated but it still doesn't work. I input the credentials and click "test" and it fails. COMPUTERNAME\username password Doesn't work for both users. One is admin and the other is a regular account. For "Credential Name" I tried…

in How to Change an Unknown Node (PC) to a Known Node that is not on a Domain? Comment by kange0010 December 2017

Hi mesverrum, Thank you for the prompt response. I found the Retention period in settings. I also pressed the "CALCULATE" button and it displayed my current size as 3.2 GB. So if I change my retention period to 90 days, will my current size be increased to 9.6 GB (3.2 * 3 = 9.6)? In regards to performance, will my web…

I discussed it with Technical support and it seems that I should be using the 2nd option in EOL and inputting the info manually for the ones that seemed bugged. Thanks rschroeder.

in How Does EOS work for Solarwinds? Comment by kange0010 January 2018

I'm looking for more than "self explanatory." How would I configure the Network Discovery tool? Where would I go? How do I check if I do have devices configured? Please be specific with pictures if possible; I'm more of a visual learner. Thank you.

hi d09h, Thank you for the reply. I am working on an existing network and didn't get to do anything with Network Sonar Discovery jobs. Please navigate me there and inform me exactly what I am looking for. Where is the path for this? I looked in settings\all settings and could not find any link to Network Sonar Discovery

in Upgrading Questions Comment by kange0010 May 2018

Thank you for the info Vinay. What would be the best practice once I have my 2016 server up and running? Or should I say what are the next steps after that? Would it be to install the latest version of Solarwinds? All these questions are to be sure I have a smooth transition and hopefully this will help others.

Thank you both for the feedback. mthughes, How did you make that so-called "simple UnDP table?" That is definitely the direction I am looking for my Home Summary page. Did you do a poller for each router or 1 poller for the 3? I setup 1 UnDP for all the routers that have BGP and applied a chart to the "Node Details…

Hi melmstedt, Thank you for the info and references. I'm already on NPM 12.x but I guess after installing a new OS I would need to reinstall the NPM.

That is not what I had in mind but if it answers my questions it'll do. Do you mind walking me step by step on how you accomplished this? Can this be placed in a NOC view to cycle between other connections I want to setup in a similar manner?
