Re: Solar Winds needs a Dynamic Mapping tool
HemiTruck Apr 26, 2012 8:28 PM (in response to gunner2510)dynamic mapping will be nice once it comes around but from your post you have not even been using the tool you have.
it might be static but you have always been able assign links/interfaces to the connector lines between nodes.
you can even assign multiple links to a line in the case of a port-channel
Dynamic will be nice once they give it to us but dont beat them up for you not using what they gave you.

Have you taken a look at this doc? http://www.solarwinds.com/documentation/orion/docs/OrionNetworkAtlasAdminGuide.pdf

gunner2510 Apr 27, 2012 10:25 AM (in response to DanielleH)Thank you for the link. I have looked this before and the steps can work. I hope they can make this an easier solution. Monitoring and managing the monitoring systems are only 1/32 of my job and i assume that this is the case for most admins.

When you are in Network Atlas, just hover over the line you have between nodes. Right click and go to properties. Then add the end-points you want to monitor. I have the interface/sub-interface monitored at each end within my map.

If you look close to your connection, you will notice that you only recieve information on the tranmist and recieve for one end of the circuit. it does not monitor both ends at the same time.
