  • The message you need to monitor is actually *Configured from vty*. I only have the logging server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx command in my config. What output do you get when you do a show log? I have the following. I don't use a loopback address, I'm using mgmt0 interface. You may just need to set your severity level. Logging…
  • You need to add the node into NPM first and that's where you assign the CLI & SNMP credentials. To add a device for monitoring in the Orion Web Console: * Log in to the Orion Web Console as an administrator. * Click Settings in the top right of the web console. * Click Manage Nodes in the Node & Group Management grouping…
  • Open Trap Viewer on your server and create a rule to discard the unwanted SNMP trap.
  • Or are you talking about NCM? You do this in Settings, NCM Settings and then either select Global Device Defaults or Connections Profiles depending on which one you want to change.
  • 1) I hardly visit the solarwinds.com website. Only if I need to log a case or check my licenses. 2) I use the customer portal to log a case which is hardly ever. 3) I inherited Solarwinds when I joined our national team. A quick google brought me to thwack to find the info I was looking for. I joined thwack about 6 months…
  • On the SNMP trap rule select the Alert Actions Tab. Then click on the Add Action and then select Windows Event Log. Then select Log Messge in Event Log on NetPerfMon Server. That should show it up in the Alerts.
  • I would just create the 1 job with all the subnets in there. You just have to make sure if completes before the Discovery timeout passes. That way only 1 discovery is ever running at a time. I have about 50 sites nationally and only use the 1 Solarwinds server with no extra polling servers. It's been running like that for…
  • Check out this clip, it explains all about Best Practices SolarWinds Orion Scalability Best Practices and Futures - YouTube
  • Anything that you monitor in Solarwinds can be reported on. So it can email you if an interface goes down to an ISP etc. As for maps, you can create these in Orion Network Atlas. You can monitor the link in the map for up/down status. If it goes down, the link will turn red. So I colour all my monitored links in green so…
  • I'm not sure if that information is shown anywhere but here is the list of oids ASA 5510 OID list · GitHub Let us know what you find.
  • Here is the official help guide SCP_Exam_Prep_Guide.pdf And here is the official website Network Certification | SolarWinds Certified Professional - SolarWinds Good luck!
  • You need to select the uplink interfaces into monitoring. To do this go into Manage Nodes and find the node in question. Tick the box next to it and select List Resources. Then find the uplink interfaces and tick them and click on Submit. It will now fill in the Unknown details with the port details.
  • Do you ever get notified if a device goes offline? If yes, then maybe this email is generated by another alert you have setup. If you have no other alerts configured, then please post up the alert details. If you do have other alerts, have a look in the Reset Action tab, maybe there's a stray email action in one of them…
  • In NPM you will need to display the whole list. You can't pick certain options. But in SAM, you will be able to pick the exact option you want and display it accordingly.
  • Either an OID works or it doesn't. It's not about the way you add it in. You can't make an OID work if the device doesn't support it. Unfortunately you have to step through all the MIB's to find one that give you what you're looking for. This may help you Free FORTINET-FORTIANALYZER-MIB SNMP MIB Download - Free MIB…
  • Very cool mate! Here no one would buy something for someone else! Enjoy them
  • Syslog has been replaced by log viewer. To see syslogs associated with a node, I added a SWQL query widget to the view with the following code SELECT TOP 100 -- Edit this number for how many messages you want to load to widget (you can modify the widget for how many messages to page) let.Name AS [Message Type] ,Level AS…
  • Your upgrade path looks spot on. Good luck.
  • In your trigger make sure you are using the 'Discards - This Hour' option. Then you'll only get alerted once per hour. For the reset condition, use "Reset when trigger conditions are no longer true". This is what I use but for Errors instead.
  • Monitoring Panorama in Solarwinds just monitors the Panorama server, not all the firewalls it manages. You need to monitor each firewall individually to get the stats.
  • No, not unless the router is on the network and the Solarwinds server can connect to it via TFTP or whatever. So you will need to give the new router or switch an IP address and put it on the network. You can then dump a config file into the startup if you wish and then reboot.
  • What variable are you using in your email alert for the hostname?
  • We had 2 issues with the 2019.4 upgrade. 1) NCM stopped working on APE's 2) Alert email to HTTPS post/get no longer worked For issue 1 Solarwinds had to rebuild both APE's and then NCM started working again. But after that I noticed that RTCD no longer worked from the APE's. It looks like now the APE's themselves try and…
  • How do you have your connection profile configured? I had to create a separate connection profile for the Nexus where the "Enable Level" is set to "<No Enable Login>". Then it works fine.
  • Mine is not going well. Since I upgraded to 2019.4, my 2 APE's no longer work with NCM and my main outage notification which send an HTTP post no longer works either. The Solarwinds tech has tried 3 times so far to fix the APE issue. But now the APE he's been working on is offline. This is after he re-installed the whole…
  • Change this bit " Average Xmit-Recv Percent Utilization is greater than 90" to "Recv Percent Utilisation is greater than 90." Make sure Type of Property to Monitor is set to Interface. Also, I would set this "Do not trigger this action until condition exists for more than 1 seconds" a little higher. You're checking the…
  • I agree. I certainly don't have any page display delays. This may help? Optimize the performance of the Orion Web Console
  • In report writer the speed default is bps but when speeds are greater than 1000bps, it changes automatically to Mbps. Can you please show us an example of what you're seeing?
  • Can you please post up what your alert message is configured as in your alert? Maybe someone has just typed that text into your alert message. I've not seen anything that gives "###1###" as a variable output before.
  • Do you have SAM? Solarwinds comes with some out-of-the-box inventory reports. You could copy one of them and modify it for your needs or you can just create your own. Basically if Solarwinds is collecting the data you are seeking, it can be displayed in a report. Solarwinds SAM collects the data you are looking for.
