news?^^

PS:I see that the driver used are "Catalyst Generic".

Sorry for this huge quantity of message ^^

I've upgrade to version 1.2.7 but nothing change, only mac-address on vlan 1 are detected.

At startup i see this driver loaded:
[22-May-2013 12:02:21.542] Network device driver "NETSCREEN" loaded successfully
[22-May-2013 12:02:21.542] Network device driver "DLINK" loaded successfully

I have 2 different netxms server on 2 different network area and no one of this can get the mac address correctly from 2960.

Thank you for the help.

Hello Victor!
Yes i see that Cisco use community string indexing for access VLAN others then VLAN1 (using the form community@VLAN-ID)...In fact if I use as Netxms community "my_community@my_vlan" i can see the mac address of the end user connected to the switch.
How can i check the driver?What is the correct driver?
Thank you so much.

I see that the value displayed in the "switch forwarding table" are retrived in the dot1dTpFdbTable oid of the switch...The problem is that in this snmp table there aren't the mac addressess of the host connected to switch
Is there something i have to configure on the switch to fix the problem? Or, is there any other snmp table i have to check to examine to found the correct mac address of the end user?

Thank you!

Hi,

i have several Cisco 2960 with IOS  Version 12.2(55)SE3. Several host are connected to the port of the switch and this host are present as node on Netxms.
But if i show the interface tab of the Window Details object of the Cisco 2960, i can't see the Peer Mac or the Peer Host of any of this access port.
The only host i can see connected to the interface of the 2960 are the ciscos 4500 that are the core of the network .
I show the switch forwarding table of the 2960 and nobody of the mac of the end user connected to the switch are showed. The only mac address i see in the switch forwarding table are mac of other switch(i think this information is retrived by netxms throught CDP)-
In another area of the network, i have the same network architecture but with Hp Procurve instead of Cisco 2960: in this case in the switching forwarding table are present all mac address of the user connected and the tool "Find switch port" works on the node connected to the HP.
How can i fix this issue?Maybe for the 2960 netxms don't use correct oid for retrive the switch forwarding table?

Thank you in advance for the help

Hi,

this is my context:

i have a switch, for each interface i have a description that indicate the patch panel position or the end device connected.

this is my goal:

i'd like to have on Netxms for each interface a field that contains the description and when an up/down alarm for the interface is raised, i'd like to have the description field inclused in the alarm mail.

I think to realize this using the comment field of the interface or adding a custum attribute for the interface...and until here no problem...but, how i can include the comment or the custum attribute in the alarm mail?
If i add a custum attribute, in the event manager panel, when i configure the the "SYS_IF_DOWN" event, can i get the custom attribute using the  "$number" format (in other word, the classic way for use the parameter in the message string) ?

Thank you,

Giovanni

Hi,

first, thank you the answer.

In your example, you configure the event configuration policy and the action to obtain netxms sent an email every time the threshold is exceeded, and this is ok.
But, in this time, i'm not interested in get the mail.
Normally, when you use DCI, it's not required to configure a customized event, but you can use the standard event for Threshold "SYS_THRESHOLD_REACHED".
And if you configure a Threshold for a DCI, when the event occour a popup with the allarm message appear on the console and you can see the alarm in the alarm menu of this object.
In my case is like netxms don't see the actual value is greater than the threshold.

Hi!

i have a IBM server and i want to monitor his temperature, voltage etc... So i get this data through snmp, and for each data i create a data collection item.
For each data collection item, i create a threshold: if last  polled value is greater than x, an event is raised!... But, didn't work!
The actual value of the DCI is greater than the threshold but no alarms appear! I test this with 2 different DCI, but the result is the same.
I try to use all the different choice of Data Input for the DCI (Integer, Unsigned Integer, etc) but nothing change.
I have configured several type of alarms with other DCI and all of this works, the unique difference is the value of this DCI are collected by Netxms Agent and not by SNMP.
How can I fix this?
I'm running netxms 1.2.5 on Debian 32 bit.
Thank you!

Hi!

i run the agent with -D 9 option and I discover netxms try to contact the agent with another ip that i'm not expected. I add this IP in MasterServer and everything going ok.
Thank You for the help,

Hi,

i'm running netxms 1.2.5 and i wanna to monitor an FTP service on a Window 64 bit . I have installed the agent 1.2.5 (x64 version) on Window, here is the configuration on the agent:

#
# NetXMS agent configuration file
# Created by agent installer at Tue Feb 26 12:35:08 2013
#

MasterServers = 10.10.9.10
ConfigIncludeDir = C:\NetXMS\etc\nxagentd.conf.d
LogFile = {syslog}
FileStore = C:\NetXMS\var
SubAgent = portcheck.nsm
SubAgent = winperf.nsm
SubAgent = wmi.nsm

i started the agent with the -c option and the above configuration. The agent starts successfully and it listen for connection on port 4700

On netxms Console, when i Poll the configuration of the node the agent on the node isn't recognized.

From the netxms server,  both the ping to the Window pc or the telnet to the ip and port are ok, so why the agent isn't viewed from the console?

Thank You in advance,

Giovanni

Hi,

i add the user created to the group "EveryOne" and it works!

Thank you anyway for the support !:)

Hi,

my goal is  having a user (non admin) can see the dci and the status of a specific object.
I create the user, then i grant to him the necessary permission on the "Access Control" Tab of the specific node, but when i logon with the user i can't see the object in the "object window" (particullary, i see no object)
Is there something else i have to configure?

Thank you!

Hi,

i've installed netxms last version (1.2.5), the mac address of the equipment are correctly recognized and netxms can access to the switch through SNMP and view ARP cache, routing table etc...
But if i execute "Find switch port" on a node, i got error "connection point information cannot be found".
The switch is a Cisco 3750.
There is other thing to configure over the snmp connection to the switch?
How can I make this function working?

Thank you in advance,

Giovanni
