How to add a device which only responds to ping/icmp?
by Thomas Stather 24 Apr '23

24 Apr '23

Hi How can i add a device which cannot (!) speak any snmp and only responds to ping/icmp requests? We have an Aruba wlan setup (Mobility Master and two Mobility Controllers) and i want to add the aps to Observium, so that they are monitored but only by ping/icmp. (The MM and the two MCs are already added to Observium, but i cannot see if one AP went offline or came back online again) The aps cannot speak any snmp when managed by the MM or MC, thats why it fails when i try to add one via ./add_device.php I appreciate any help :) Best, Thomas -- Thomas Stather IT Services VCP4, VCP6-DCV, VCP6.5-DCV Tel: +49 6221 486 628 Fax: +49 6221 486 561 Bevor Sie diese Mail ausdrucken, prüfen Sie bitte ob dies wirklich nötig ist.

"reset limits" doesn't work with one switch
by Wiethoff, Helge 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Hi everyone, I have a problem with the "reset limits" function: On a device with many sensors (305) I can't recalculate the limits using "reset limits" in the device-preferences. Normally a note with the message appears: "Reset limits for Current sensor foo"; they will be recalculated on the next discovery run." But with this device this message does not appear. Of course I don't know if it has to do with the number of sensors but it is the only device where the problem occurs. Can I reset the limit values directly via the database? Thanks! Helge

Same Subnet devices
by Arrigo 13 Oct '22

Hi All. Is there a way to disable same subnet devices shown in port list: Since we have lots of devices with identical LAN network, list on the right of the page can be very long (and useless, btw ...). Thanks, Arrigo.

question about alert checker TEST
by Edvinas Kairys 27 Aug '22

27 Aug '22

Hello, I'm using alert checker with quite standard check: ifInOctets_perc ge 90 ifOutOctets_perc ge 90 But sometimes the SNMP returns incorrect value like 134651%, especially in Nexus devices. I would like to prevent that with inserting test value like: ifInOctets_perc le 100. But i'm wondering if it's possible to do this in single rule in Observium that would look like this: (ifInOctets_perc ge 90 and ifInOctets_perc le 100) or (ifOutOctets_perc ge 90 and ifOutOctets_perc le 100) Or i need to create separate rules for both groups ? Thanks

Stormshield issues
by Luca Sasdelli 27 Aug '22

27 Aug '22

Hi, on several Stormshield firewalls, I read some issues: * the firewalls are detected as Generic devices, while some time ago they were correctly detected as Stormshield firewalls * some ports report wrong speed: e.g. on 8 gigabit ports same appliance, some appears with 4Mbps, 20Mbps or 1Gbps, even by correcting them in its properties The second one isn't simply a cosmetic issue, because threshold alerts are generated with ordinary traffic.
