Do'oh!! Nevermind! *facepalm*

The NetFlow config free tool won't work with all platforms. You can manually config Netflow for the 871 by entering this at the indicated levels. (config) ip flow-export destination {hostname|ip_address} 2055 (config) ip flow-export version 5 (config-if) ip route-cache flow

The Cisco equivalent is ip flow-cache active 1 in the global config.

I recommend opening a ticket on this. BTW - What does it show when you switch from Mbps to % util?

With full duplex being so ubiquituos, total traffic makes no sense for most circuits.

You don't need the RW, just the RO. If you are unable to get an RO, SNMP cannot be used to monitor it. You can monitor it for availibility via Ping if it responds to pings.

Hi Sal, Contact Customer Service at 866.530.8100. They can get you a new key. Andy

Hi Larry, I know that this sql statement from the "95% Traffic Rate - This Month report" sepcifies 'this month' as the time frame. What I don't know is how to expand that statement to 'this year'. Maybe a community SQl guru can help us with this? DECLARE @StartDate DateTime DECLARE @EndDate DateTime SET @StartDate = CAST…

Hi jkeberle, I've got this one tracked to be fixed. Thanks, Andy

Hi udaman Look in dbo.engines. If you see that your current poller is primary and the old one is also primary you can remove the old one.If your current one is not primary open a ticket and have support help you. DELETE FROM dbo.Engines WHERE ServerName = 'name of your old server'; will do the trick. If you are not…

Hi roselyn, We poll devices for delay, not individual interfaces. Typically the response time will be impacted by the relative location of the device and the NPM server. LAN and serial interfaces local to the NPM server will tend to have similar delay, while LAN and serial ports at a remote location will tend to have a new…

The only way I have found is to create a simple alert that creates a custom property for all down nodes and have that simple alert run right before second the advanced alert (which suppresses upon seeing the custom property).

Top 5 applications network wide or top 5 for a specific router?

Sorry for the confusion here. The web interface gives you the ability to do some rudimentary functions of the advanced alert manager. It will always be in sync with the advanced alert manager win32 application but does not interact with basic alerts win32 app. We started off with basic alerts, added advanced alerts on a…

I have seen a case with that error message where the All Triggered Alerts resource was causing the issue. Try removing that resource from the Home page via admin -> Manage Views. If that does the trick run config wizard then add it back.

Actual throughput is a theoretical maxamum transfer rate based on round trip time and the TCP window size. I don't like using this number because the result in often larger that the actual circuit speed. I prefer to use the actual max transfer rate instead.

Hey now JT! I think I know where you are looking. If this is the correct view, just click the down arrow next to the time frame and the yellow box will pop up with the ability to adjust the time frame. Andy

I assume this is an Orion managed device?

You would have to write acustom SQL report for that.

Do you have Orion modules as well? Make sure you follow this upgrade matrix. Can you be more specific on the errors?

Hi Debbi, Our next release of NTA is focused on performance. We have been testing using graph loading as our test measurement. It looks a lot better. Also there will be several new options you will be able to set to improve performance. NetFlow is very data intensive compared to most other network management technologies…

Moving to a VM won't enhance performance from our experience. A beefier physical server will be your best bet.

Here's a great doc from Cisco Also try our NetFlow config free tool - I have not tried it myself on an 1800 but it works on most routers.

Hi sotherls, NetFlow as a technology is very data intensive. That being said, I have not had any users mention the LAN between Orion and SQL as a bottleneck. Where you can run into problems is if your SQL server is not read/write optimized. I recommend the server have RAID 0 or RAID 10 storage. Andy

2 hours is the maximum setting for the "as collected" NetFlow stats. That does not mean that you only can see the last 2 hours, that is just where data roll up starts. The as collected NetFlow data takes up a lot of space so if you were to increase it that would eat up your 50G quickly.

I believe that the 4500 needs a NetFlow card installed - WS-4531

Not yet, but it is on the roadmap for a future release

Why not just make a UnDP and include it on the APM component details view?

Interfaces and volumes are implicit children to the node they reside on. You don't have to define that when creating dependencies.
