Hi,
We are planning to host our entire Solarwinds platform in Azure with NPM, NTA, SAM, NCM, IPAM and VNQM Modules. All APEs will also be hosted in Azure.
However, we have a hybrid infrastructure wherein Servers will be hosted in co-lo DCs across locations and there will be some azure VMs to monitor as well. Network/VOIP devices located on remote sites too.
Has anyone tried a complete Solarwinds Azure deployment with target servers/network devices on premise. Will such a solution work? Will our Azure hosted APEs be able to communicate with on premise Network Devices/Server via SNMP/Agent with required ports opened? Or an on premise APE is mandatory? Any advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks!
