How about write to NPM event log? Peter

In addition to that, right now it's a difficult or virtually impossible task to audit user rights across the entire box. The entire user rights management, with the vast array of pull downs needs to be cleaned up and put into this class functionality, and then we can run reports like "All users with no class assignment" or…

Generally that is the position of most NMS platform developers / products. I love the fact that there are tons of mibs included in the MIB database, but a simple windows gui that could allow you to pick and choose vendor by vendor with simple check boxes isn't there, and would totally work. Even more importantly, I still…

Not sure if I mentioned this in the thread already, but in addition to rights, etc.. being able to set a specific set of "views by device type" for the "user class/group" is also critical. If they look at a device, $customer class doesn't get to see raw syslog, traps, software versions, etc.. internal users do to varying…

Migrate Kiwi to integrate with the core NPM product and it's AD integrated already.

Update: It appears virtually all the services are 32-bit, not 64-bit native. There may be some exceptions I'm not seeing, but that's the appearance. This issue is perhaps better addressed in a different feature request thread, although if SW handles this stuff piecemeal that may be intuitive for me, but incorrect. Peter

jhynds​ Rather than see this ancient heavily upvoted issue get dumped onto a separately licensed product, we need the core product functionality issues to be resolved. I can't make the point any clearer than saying SNMP Trap handling does not belong in LEM by any stretch of the imagination. It is one of the two core SNMP…

You meant to say, here's how you create Events.. However, creating events, while not completely useless, is also not provisioning. The point in my mind for the API is to give us a programmatic way to create Alerts (Basic are gone now, right?, Advanced, Syslog, Trap, and while we're at it, how about identifiable "bad"…

Must also stress that this feature needs to be optional on a property by property basis Peter

It's pretty sweet. sec-style message handling and the quantitative analysis OVER TIME instead of the (epic fail) SW Trap and Syslog rule suppression (it suppresses ALL trap actions if a suppression is hit on ONE out of over 200 rules, aka, epic fail). That tiny bit of SW Dev/Product attention would change life as I know it…

Strangely enough, this feature request now gets a 404 when you try to click on it. Talk about expectation management. Getting sick of the no reply from SW, and if I may, I'd like to quote a page from thwack about the "Ideation" process and how it's basically "The new feature request". This has been literally a couple of…

Added a comment to that what we're working on thread.. nothing new, as per SOP @ SW. Peter

It's ridiculous that this isn't on the list of current 10.5 beta enhancements. It's also totally garbage for SW to have this alleged priority system based on thwack voting and feedback and then continue to ignore it, and ignore it, and ignore it. Peter

And then again, the point IS NOT to take SEC's source code and integrate it into Orion, but merely to look at it for ideas. That goes for anything covered under GPL, really. As well as other products out there, and how they handle it. In most cases, looking at source for other vendor's commercial offerings isn't possible,…

Okay, I don't say it enough.. we only talk about what the problems are.. but.. I do have to say that since about 10.1.. the product has been steadily progressing towards being an almost godlike amazingly robust tool. There is great functionality in the SNMP arena and even the issue that was one of the single biggest issues…

Bump. Initial thread created a little over 4 years ago.. we have 71 votes but we need more apparently to get this gaping hole addressed for the core NPM. This is still a need. This will continue to be a need, virtually forever. There are so many devices that store data in this way, where tables need to be JOINed, to borrow…

But seriously though.. making people do this manually is ridiculous. It's 2014.. use SQL, Luke. I mean, I like the idea, as long as it's very limited in scope. Making someone look up customer information that's stored in a format that can be easily imported into SL_Orion which is basically whatever you want, CSV, SQL…

I also agree that the lack of functionality merge from the acquisitions has been a real letdown. I also had my hopes up high and I know many folks mentioned that hope on thwack when Kiwi was acquired, including myself. Getting told how 15GB of trap data is too much when the SNMP polling is as robust as it is is ridiculous.…

So, we're at 6 months on this topic, with +120 on votes and a lot of comments.. is there any comment on these issue's placement in the roadmap from SW for 2013? Is it in the top 3, 5, 10? I certainly hope it's far above further enhancements to the Network Atlas? I really didn't need all my charts re-skinned either, for…

Just as an aside.. I did contact support, who found some issues relating to a bug fixed in 10.3.1. Nothing specific on the traps, but enough to force an upgrade on the spot. Guess what, trap receiver *still* won't shut down.. So then, the answer from support is: "You have too many traps." That is such a non-answer. I have…

2016 Bump!

Yeah, unfortunately that's a cross-product feature request. Being able to send scheduled reports as CSV would be a huge plus, but I can solve it with cron and perl nicely. Peter

Also on: Cisco 7609 Turin Traverse 2020 Acme Packet Net-Net products (4250/4500) confirmed. Dell/Equallogix PS-4000 series storage arrays (and most likely newer) It's not a small issue, really.

I can't believe this feature hasn't gotten more traction. Whatever tool Destiny uses to compile the MIB database, can certainly be wrapped up fairly easily and provided. Still haven't been able to do a MIB database update for over 4 years because it's not managed as our environment dictates. Even worse, to translate traps…

Super agreed. Critical to be able to build our own MIBS.cfg. There are so many things I'd like to remove in there, and so many I need to add.. Peter

I use node or interface custom properties to: organize tree views limit reports group reports limit user view or node management store critical node, interface data, customer, site, and circuit data set custom bandwidth thresholds for alerting Have about 60-70 custom properties on nodes and another 10-20 on interfaces with…

This thread has been in the "what we're working on" status for forever, but we're not seeing any tangible evidence of that.. Syslog and Trap rules / alerting mechanisms, thresholds or limits that work on a per rule basis instead of the existing suppression which suppresses all traps alerts globally, instead of the way it…

Same story more or less, with some differences, we had between 8 and 20 engineers at various points. Most of them had node management rights, so they could add / unmanage / delete if needed, but network policy is that we would unmanage nodes, relabel them with a customer # of "DISCO" and leave them in the NMS, in case we…

Right, okay, so let me throw in a couple of workaround options. 1) For ping/traceroute, I don't run those tools from Windows, they get run from a Linux host behind a gui. Tools like mtr (that requires root privileges) and are of dubious potential security, get protected behind firewalls/network ACL's and appropriate…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're looking for access to these tools be run from the Orion *server* directly. I can corroborate that it would be a good idea. It would be different in my mind than browser integration, which just launches the tools from your workstation. It would be of particular use for techs trying to…
