General Support / Number of Devices and Logical Containers
September 24, 2013, 06:13:40 PM
Looking to replace Whats Up Gold and I stumbled across this. At first glance it seems awesome, i've installed it and it's monitoring my local network.

1) How many devices has NetXMS been tested with, i have between 7,000-10,000 devices. Mostly will just monitor ICMP but will use SNMP on alot of it also. It's all networking gear so i have little need for the agent.

2) The Network Discovery seems very useful, however once it's discovered I want to logically but devices in containers that represent locations. For Example

Site Core -> Switch,Firewall,Router,ect

Site Core -> Comm Room 1 -> Switch01, Switch02, Access Point 01, ect

Site Core -> Comm Room 2 -> Switch01, Switch 02, Access Point, ect

It seems like NetXMS is geared towards grouping devices in subnets, and that is very useful, but for my application i need to group them by location also. I was wondering what is the best way of doing this. I created containers under Infrastructure Services, like my example above, but it seems like i'm not doing it right. Just a example of what i should do would be helpful.

Thanks again for the awesome product!
