General Support / Re: Changing the name of switch ports
February 04, 2008, 07:20:15 PM
Thank you, I did manually force a configuration poll before posting.  But, after doing a SNMPWALK, it seems that the names being returned via SNMP are hardcoded interface names, not the names we assigned each port  :(

I am guessing that we will need to manually name each port, since NetXMS will not be able to query a differnet name for the port.

I will post to the wishlist.

Thank you, and I just want to reiterate that this product seems to be well done and it seems to fit a nice niche.  We have been searching for a tool similar to this for awhile.  Most of the monitoring tools will either monitor or they will track performance, but few can do both relatively well.

Thanks again,
Kevin

General Support / Can't compile DELL 5224 MIB
February 04, 2008, 07:14:46 PM
I downloaded the DELL 5224 MIB and tried to compile it and I am getting the following error...

ted LCASEFIRST_IDENT_SYM, expecting UCASEFIRST_IDENT_SYM in line 1

I have all the default mib's installed from the 0.2.19.  I downloaded from oidview.com the additional MIB's needed and compiled those without any problems:
Q-Bridge
P-Bridge
RMON2-MIB
TOKEN-RING-RMON-MIB

Any ideas?

Thank you,

General Support / Changing the name of switch ports
February 04, 2008, 06:14:52 PM
After we did our network discovery, NetXMS pulled all the ports from all our managed switches.  We decided that we want to name the switch ports on our devices so we know what port is what in NetXMS.  So on our test switch, we renamed the ports on our DELL 5224.  Is there a way to get NetXMS to read the new port information and rename all the interfaces?

Also, we had some stale dns records in our reverse dns ptr's.  We are cleaning those up as well.  How can we have NetXMS re-read the new dns records?

Thank you,
Kevin

Is it possible to specify multip SNMP communitis in network discover?  If not, can we discover with one community then change the community and run another discovery?

Thank you,

General Support / Re: Defining the Performance Tab
February 02, 2008, 12:30:15 AM
We are in the process of testing out this program to use to help supplement our system monitoring and alerting.  One of the first things that we stumbled across was seeing if we could customize the performance tab.

So far the program looks great, but customizable dashboard views for what is currently going on would definately be a nice plus.

Thank you,
Kevin
