NetXMS Support Forum

Hi,
I'm trying to get all devices of my network classfied (switches, servers, but also phones, tablets, laptops, etc..), and I'd like to separate in two main categories, or profiles: The "critical" ones, which I want to be notified for any change, and the only "observed", which I only want to keep track of ip, mac address, dns name, but don't need to be notified at all.

The "crititcal" ones, have a fixed ip address, and the oberved have a dynamic ip assignment by dhcp. The dhcp is configured to keep dns name consistent.

I'd like to get advice about how to accomplish this with netxms. What options do I have?

If I'm not wrong, if I set a node in Unmanaged mode, it does not keep track of the ip changes, isn't it?

I'll manually classifiy the nodes into containers, and the critical and oberved are the 2 main containers inside "Infrastructure Services".

Thanks.

Hi,
I'm, considering to monitor some devices that are configured by dhcp. They are not critical, but are important, and would like to have a listing or inventory of all devices in the network.
Instead of doing a manual listing on a document, I think that NetXMS could be suitable, just to see if they are online, and get them classified (by type, location)

I saw that a node that changes it's IP, is detected as different object and NetXMS does not take in account the mac address. Maybe NetXMS is not adequate to monitor a network whith some dhcp devices, or I'm missing something?
Maybe applying some script on new devices to see if that mac exists, or other workarround?

Thanks.

Hi, I'd like to know how to list nodes that are unbinded.
I'd like to list or filter them, so new discovered network devices can be bound easily to some Infrastructure Services.
Thanks.
