add this ;F=Bandwidth as part of the variable. So it looks like this ${N=SwisEntity;M=Inbps;F=Bandwidth}

It uses putty in the background. But upgrade to the latest version, then it just tabs the session across the top bar.

Look in the top right hand corner to see as whom you are logged into solarwinds as. Maybe you got added to a group that doesn't have IPAM rights.

Not all devices show this. With Cisco switches and routers, you can get this information in the change email notification. 

https://documentation.solarwinds.com/en/success_center/orionplatform/content/install-centralized-upgrade-primary-server.htm

Do a SMPWALK on the device and then look for the OID that has the info you are looking for.

Just make sure they all have this turned on.

You could go into All Settings, Manage Nodes. Then select all the nodes you wish to change. Then click on Edit Properties. Scroll down to Connect Profile. Select it and fill out the details. Then click on Submit.

In the above reply you mentioned you have added in the new interface to be monitored at both ends. Can you confirm that you've selected the correct interface? As for a copy of CPD neighbour so you can confirm the correct interfaces. You will need to delete the old link out of Atlas and select the 2 nodes in question. Now…

Yes if you don't currently know the IP ranges used, then run a job to collect all the IP ranges. Using "sho ip int bri | i Vlan" might be an easier option to use.

Do you have all the options ticked in Node Invetory?

You should be able to achieve this by using the compliance part of NCM.

That's odd as on my 2024.1 installation, nested maps works as intended. If I left click on the nested map a new tab opens up with the map. If I just hover on the object, I get the box with the commands as an option. What NPM version are you on? I just use this option when adding in a map on a map.

As mentioned, VLAN doesn't have anything to do with it. You discover via subnet or ip range. These are the options.

The native vlan is not required for connect now to work. You say changes were made to the links, what changes were made? I assume you can see the core from these 3 switches as a CDP neighbour?

You really need to see what problem tickets you get and then work out which Solarwinds modules or othe software would help in resolving them. But NCM is one I would recommend. It will backup all your network devices and send you emails when someone makes any changes

I would set all of them to 100Gbps as they can all use that as a maximum if the others are unused.

Have you tried to install it on another server? 

Yes all you need to do is make sure you are monitoring the interface and then create an alert. I do alerting on certain links when they are over 70% receive for a continuous 5 mins. You can also create an extra alert that alerts on high transmit utilisation.

You could rename the displayed name. Just tick the box and go Edit Properties. There you can change the display name to whatever you want. But there is no way for them to come up different than what shows up during discovery phase. But once discovered, you can change the names.

I would say you'd need to use a custom poller. Work out which oid has the info you're looking for and then create a poller for it.

I agree with stuartd, I'm not a fan of Orion Maps so far. I also noticed that when a link goes down in Orion maps, it just disappears rather than turning red. And when the link does turn red, it's just running high traffic rather than being down. 

Does your server have internet access? Does it pass the proxy test?

Are you sending to an address for an email group? If so, maybe the email group has restrictions on who can email to it. You shouldn't have to run config wizard to fix your issue. You have to understand what changes were made and configure Solarwinds accordingly.

Try adding the chat ID in your Body to POST e.g. chat_id=-1111111111&parse_mode=html&disable_notification&text=alert_name

Yes you would need to write custom pollers for the info you wish to monitor. Run a snmpwalk over the ilo so you can see what oids are available. Everything you see in the GUI will be monitorable but you need to write custom poller for them.

Do a snmpwalk over the device and that will show you what MIBs are available on the device. Hopefully in there you'll see one that has the info you're looking for. You don't need to have Tripp-Lite mibs installed. But if you did, it would mean you can go through the MIB tree in solarwinds to find what you want. But all you…

I used to use Telegram for our alerts and have now changed to Slack. I just call an API in my alert. Please show me how you have it currently configured.

No there isn't.

No, NCM is for network devices only. You could use this www.solarwinds.com/patch-manager
