passing Username/Password to NPM via iframe from another site - this is killing me!

So the boss wants to see the 24 hour network availability chart embedded on the home page of our website.

Reading another thwack post, I try to iframe a PrintableCustomChart, thusly

 

<iframe src="">170.121.43.102/.../PrintableCustomChart.aspx width=675 height=425 id=myFrame>
</iframe>

All that displays in the iframe when viewed is the SolarWinds NPM Login screen.  No credentials are passed.  I was guessing that "ctl00$ContentPlaceHolder1$Username=Guest" might work from looking at the html source for the login page, no dice.  I tried various mutations of the above, no joy either.

Can any of you smart folks figure out a solution to my quest?

    Lots of people use the DirectLink feature to accomplish this goal.

  • Hi Horch,

     

    Have you had any successs with this?

     

    I recently purchased 2 Cisco 4400G DMP to display solarwinds in our NOC.

    However they will only display a URL and can not take an input so I need to pass the username and password in a url which the DMP can display

  • I havent been able to get it to work without authentication.  Additionally even with authentication, when i have an NTA graph, say Top XX applications or Endpoints, the iframe only shows half the data.  I will get the application data but not the graph itself.  It complains about the resource displaying correctly due to the configuration of the browser.  Yet outside of an iframe, i can see the data just fine.

     

    It might be an interaction anomaly with the wiki we are using to embed.  But its really hard to debug
