What you've said is correct. You can add whatever you like to your summary page.

I use Syslog alerting for this capability. I alert on syslogs with the message type "IP-4-DUPADDR". Works beaut.

As mentioned, you do this with alert. There's a build in one already called 'Alert me when a node goes down'. You just need to fill in the email details.

Just like you would add in any other device. Go into manage nodes and select Add New. Then put in the ip address and SNMP details etc and add it in.

Because you are shutting down the port, the alerts don't get activated. Shutdown is an admin command. However if you pulled the cable out instead, then your alert should happen the way you say.

Which model firewall?

You could try changing the enable level to "<No Enable Login>".

I've been using Solarwinds for around 10 years and I've never seen this before. Seeing it keeps happening between different versions for you, I think there's something weird just happening in your system. A quick google search revealed no other similar findings as yours. Sounds like there's something random running on your…

It can't be done when the object is a node. But you could look at adding in a CPU object and a Memory object but I would think they would go into warning status as per the polling settings.

Just issue a 'no ntp' before you add in the new ones. So your script will be no ntp ntp server 1.1.1.1 ntp server 2.2.2.2 That should do it.

Can you please post up some pics of what you are seeing?

This is a obvious one but are you sure you have the right nodes in the correct group? Solarwinds will not show something as up unless it responds to a ping. Double check the IP address for the nodes in Portsmouth group and confirm that they are in fact located in Portsmouth. Do a traceroute and compare results to that one…

Can you please show us what you have configured on the interface for the netflow?

When you open up a session, the chat window just appears on the right hand side of the page.

In your discard message rule add in "Stop Processing Syslog Rules" in the Alert Actions tab. Then the syslog won't match anymore rules below it. EDIT: Ah just realised the original post is back from 2009. Guess they would've resolved it by now

What version of NPM are you using? I'm still only on 11.0.1 and it has an out of the box resource called F5 Device Connections. This resource shows the current connections. Then in Advanced Alert Manager I have a rule as follows. Works great.

NPM may be able to show you this information using custom pollers. See here for more details [VIDEO] Create Custom Pollers in SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM)

I would pick anything network related especially Cisco certifications.

I agree with d09h Looks to me like something has changed on your email infrastructure. If it didn't need authentication before, maybe it needs it now?

I've now stepped back in time. My time machine is still working.

No I haven't upgraded to 11.5 as yet. I'm not a fan of the new HTML pages for Alert Manager and NCM. I'm still holding of a bit longer.

Do they log an error in syslog? If yes, then you could alert on that. That's what I do.

Whilst Leon's way is way more cool, couldn't you just add "Forward the Syslog Message" and put it at the top of the Alerts/Filter Rules section?

This information is contained in the Thwack Updates email that gets sent once a week. Click the down arrow in the top right hand corner and select Preferences from the menu.

When you add a device into NPM you have the option of Adding the node to NCM (Config Manager). When you say yes to this, you need to fill out the username and password details to be able to log onto the device. There's a test button so you can test your credentials. Once it passes the credentials test, you can download…

Are you looking in the correct context? You'll need to monitor the context to be able to see this info.

When you delete a node in UDT, it prompts you with the following. So you can decide if the node is deleted from UDT only or from all modules. I'm using UDT version 3.0.2

Try sending it in Plain Text (if you're not doing that already).

There is a build in NCM report called Login Failure Report but it doesn't have a date associated to it. It's located in the NCM Security section. There's also a report called Login Status which may be useful.
