Got to a customer. they have SolarWinds and I am on a crash course to learn it. They have started SolarWinds install and have discovered Nodes. Installed are:
NPM 10.3
SAM 5.0.1
IPSLAMGR 3.5.1
NTA 3.8
IVIM 1.3
Currently we are getting alot of alerts - Remote router goes down, alert for router, switch, endpoints.
I have read Thack and watched webcasts, but maybe I am not seeing the forest for the trees.
Basically what I am working with is (approx 60 sites)
HE Router > MPLS, Frame, or Internet > FE Router or 881 > Remote Switches > Remote Devices
I have read many examples but not sure which direction to take. I have setup a Custom Property indicating which city the remote device is tied to. I have also read about using Custom Property set to different Tier levels.
Do I set up multiple Parent Child dependencies?
Parent HE Router > Child FE Router WAN interface
Parent FE Router > Child Remote Switches
Parent Remote Switches > Child Remote Devices.
Looking for any suggestions to get started and create a standard for each site (and future sites).
