bobross Jan 10, 2012 6:45 AM (in response to genesys)Go into 'Edit Node' and test SNMP. Usually when we see this behavior its due to problems with SNMP.
If the test fails - Restart the service, verify the community string, and make sure SNMP traffic isn't being blocked.

genesys Jan 10, 2012 4:42 PM (in response to bobross)SNMP tested OK and service restarted still no luck
The SNMP traffic is not being blocked. Some similar servers in same network with same NIC and drivers are working fine
Community string is same as the one for the working servers

tomas.pospisil Jan 11, 2012 8:33 AM (in response to genesys)Hi genesys,
Can you try to query sysName (OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0) and provide us result. We use this OID to get machine name.
P.S. You can use our Engineer’s Toolset http://www.solarwinds.com/products/toolsets/

genesys Jan 11, 2012 3:35 PM (in response to tomas.pospisil)We have queried the sysName as you indicated and got no result (no host name)
We did similar query on one of the working servers and the result is the server's hostname

tomas.pospisil Jan 12, 2012 5:19 AM (in response to genesys)Ok,
that's why you don't see name of device, but regading unknown device type do you use windows snmp agent, net-snmp or any other? And what returns sysObjectID (1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2) ? Lastly, what version of NPM do you use?
I'll check our database if your device type is presents.
Thanks
