Right ok, a MD is much clearer. But do you want this: For a specific node and interface? For all nodes and interfaces? And to be clear - what do you mean by "high interface traffic"? Are you after it saying when any or specific interface hits 80% usage then show here type of thing or…?

Maybe one of these…?

For sure you can - but the cost won't be pretty I suspect. And that's before you add a node. Anyway, either reach out to your current Solarwinds Customer Manager or go here: https://www.solarwinds.com/onlinequotes and click the big 'Request Quote' button.

Not promising I can do what you need, but your question isn't clear (for me) as to what your end aim is? What are you looking to achieve, where do you want this widget, etc? That said, have you looked at an interface tab for the default widgets applied? Or looked at what is available as extra widgets as one of them may…

Yeah they do… Click on your profile image, and then again on the expanded view and under the About Me where the 2nd padlock is in the below image you will see them. Then just below that in the larger box are your lifetime points.

You say you are currently using the above template. Does that mean it works? And to be clear, when you say Device Template do you mean a poller as found in: Settings > All Settings > Manage Pollers ? If so, I suspect you will need to create one of your own, as I don't recall ever seeing a Peplink one.

Interesting… I'm with Chrystal on this - call me an old curmudgeon if you wish - but AI is being used as a club on staff, and not all of us want to learn it or even need to learn it. Where I work we are being driven to use AI. I've tried but nearly everything I've thrown at it has taken me far longer to complete than the…

Doesn't really add anything to the Ops query though as it is just the question raiser talking to themselves. It does, however, confirm what I said - it needs to be done via UnDPs 😉

I've not done it, but the answers are going to be the same for any certification exam… Study, study again, and study some more. Also, get hands on with the application itself. Also, have you been through this:…

I'd never heard of BFD before so did a quick search. I can also see there are a lot of OIDs available e.g. https://mibs.observium.org/mib/CISCO-SDWAN-BFD-MIB/ - so as this is not natively built into Solarwinds, then you will need to build UnDPs and then add those in as widgets to your chosen template(s).

To backstop what @dodo123 said, if you click the little notes symbol next to the download button it shows you this:

It's not clear whether your role is just on the monitoring side or if like myself you also have a hand in the physical side. But the fix is to complete the ring and perhaps this page is your starter for 10:…

Simply put, yes you can if the manufacturer of the device you want to monitor provides that capability. We monitor several types of radio and and also microwave links for some of our clients via SNMP.

I've discussed with ten different Cisco CCIE experts, I've also stood in a room with 4 CCIE's who couldn't work out that an interface wasn't passing traffic because it was shutdown. YMMV 😉

LOL - love this reply.

Tagging in @Walshy to provide an update…

Anywhere there is a Firewall or Load balancer of similar datacentre tech involved then auto-mapping starts to fail. This is an issue across the board with mapping tech, regardless of whom (I've seen identical issues with WhatsUp Gold and other similar NMS's). Auto Mappers work great where it is a simple router to switch to…

As we move away from using SWOSH as our primary tool [not my choice but as it happens I now agree] then these are just some of my items that SWI have never properly addressed. - Full and proper RBAC control over every aspect of the interface. e.g. allow designated users full access to view and interrogate nodes (including…

Now that's funny. But, like your meme image, it would just make me think of Home Alone. I'm not good with creating names for things or purposes but I will have a think.

I guess a congrats are in order. I originally joined ages ago, to try and win prizes. But back then I never understood the point of the monthly mission, nor how to navigate what I had to do. I suspect my original User ID is still somewhere in the system as well. Skip forward many years [plus a decade] and I started to use…

Be aware that the heatmap is a "once and done". It is not a "living" tool showing your coverage, which is what a heatmap should do. e.g. if you setup and generate your heatmap then it is purely a snapshot of that point in time. If, subsequently, an AP or two go offline it will show those APs as down, but your coverage map…

I suspect this is one of those "WADs" - aka working as designed. I've noticed that not all data in the DB is equal when it comes to creating widgets or modern dashboards. You could try reaching out to your product manager and see if they have any internal links that could advise.

There is a way to do this, but it is limited. If you are adding network nodes, eg switches then use the Settings > Network Discovery approach otherwise you will have to individually go and 'list resources' for each node anyway, essentially eliminating any time saved by bulk importing. TBH - whatever you add, if they are…

The links work fine in my little bit of South Wales - which last I checked is still in the UK 🤪- but they do give an ugly box saying something about my location being wrong, but at least I can see the prize suggestion [not that I've ever won anything].

If we do that, I’ll award full points for the month to anyone who answered at least one question And therein lies another issue - nobody has been able to answer the questions. Only the shortcut is working. But to your actual question: yes, I agree that suspending the quiz is the best approach rather than leave more folks…

I tried this - looks good but lacks some info from what I'd like to see if I used this. So, I expanded your SELECT section to be: SELECT N1.Caption AS SourceNode ,T.SrcInterfaceID ,N1.Interfaces.Caption ,N2.Caption AS DestinationNode ,T.DestInterfaceID ,N2.Interfaces.Caption BUT a warning…if you have a lot of interfaces…

That would be a no, sadly.

The thing here is that "by default" the Fortinets are wireless controllers. It's just a template thing so all you need do, as @martms has stated is change the template that is in use. As to it not picking up it's a 100F then that is a poller issue and you need to install one of the custom pollers out there, for e.g.…

It's fairly straightforward to do this. Go to: Settings > All Settings and under 'Node & Group' select Manage Groups. Find the group you want [sorry, no search here] and tick the box - but make sure only the one box is ticked - n.b. manage groups is very good at ticking things you didn't think you had so be ultra cautious…

I've commented out the Client.Prefix line as that's one of our Custom Properties.
