Nothing in the preview pane suggests a URL that would direct me to the node or the alert itself (ideally I want the alert itself)

I'll have a look. In that case its probably better to set up a separate job specifically for this purpose. A job that does nothing but tries to login and log back out and only shows which devices failed the job Adding this to all the other jobs is not really feasible, but a job against all nodes is

Minimum is 11 that's why I have the command that places '#padding'. That's not the reason its failing. If I run only the padding part it works fine

We're currently on an evaluation licence. I want to see if I can add more nodes than I have licences but not have them doing anything (just ready to be activated) but I can't test this because the evaluation licence is for an unlimited number of devices So it does free up a licence, that's great. But I'm still not sure if…

Thanks Steffen I tried a few combinations of both regex and strings but the problem is it doesn't skip over a line that's been verified. So anything I tried would always fail I did find a solution eventually and it's posted above. it's to set this 'must not contain' 'regex expression' (add address=.* list=Trusted\n){3,}…

Do you need both? We only have NCM

Yes this has fixed the issue I've found that you can use either method, add +c to the username, or simply use '/export terse' that also disables color output (Note that for testing, /export terse is not a valid command in WinBox, it only works via a telnet/SSH session) Personally I prefer the latter so as to not have…

Sure enough one of the first google searches shows this Manual:Console login process - MikroTik Wiki I simply need to append +c to disable color output, i.e. solarwinds@domain.com as the username becomes solarwinds@domain.com+c when logging in. Can also set the terminal width I tried this and sure enough colors are not…

A bit of googling seems to suggest that [m and [33m (and presumably the other characters) refer to color coding When using the terminal through WinBox (the direct management software for MikroTik) it opens a CLI session to itself and this terminal window does support colors, and sure enough text is color coded. However…

Thanks wluther, I got the comments ignored. Though I don't like the way solarwinds handles that as they are global settings. Omitting lines beginning with # is all well and good for MikroTik's but they may be necessary for other devices in our network. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it, but it still seems like a…

When I go to Manage Pollers I don't have the ability to add a new entry

I'd like to hear anyone elses input if they have a cleaner solution, for now i've come up with this 'must not contain' 'regex expression' (add address=.* list=Trusted\n){3,} I set the number to 1 higher than the amount of entries I want. It's basically saying if there are '3 or more' entries present in the Trusted list,…

I've got the spam down a bit by adding more triggers such as 'condition must exist for more than 5 minutes' for packet loss which has filtered out many of the false alerts. I'll be implementing some of the other suggested changes in this thread later just havn't gotten around to it Next one though is i'm always getting 2…

I'll try disabling notifications in jobs and setting up RTCD. I can see that you can suppress it for a few seconds/minutes so that should take care of spamming the job if I i.e. paste a bunch of config changes to a lot of routers (we use a lot of MikroTik so most commands generate a log message immediately, they aren't…
