S2S Monitoring and Bandwidth Check
by Njoroge, Joyce (Stadt Ulm) 05 Dec '21

05 Dec '21

Hallo, I have two questions that I would like to know whether it is possible to do using Observium: 1. Is there a way to monitor the data that flows between site-to-site locations? 2. How can I check the bandwidth of a device that is already in observium? Lastly, I understand that mapping is from a 3rd party provider (OpenStreetMap), but would anyone have had a problem, whereby just from nowhere locations, that were properly mapped, are not correctly mapped anymore? A bunch of locations are showing in the middle of the sea. Thanks. Regards, Joyce

Discovery of IPv6 only hosts
by r0m5 30 Nov '21

30 Nov '21

Hello, I have a problem addind IPv6 only hosts to observium using discovery. For example the "myserver" host in the extract below (part of the result of"/opt/observium/discovery.php -h all -dd") This "myserver" host is discovered as a LLDP neighbor of another host. Then discovery.php tries to connect to "myserver" with snmpget using its IPv6 address. But There are missing brackets in the snmpget command : - failing : /usr/bin/snmpget -v2c -c 'commu' -Pud -OQUsn -m SNMPv2-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp6':'fde6:67ca:25ef:14::17':'161' .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 - would be OK (adding brackets) : /usr/bin/snmpget -v2c -c 'commu' -Pud -OQUsn -m SNMPv2-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp6':'[fde6:67ca:25ef:14::17]':'161' .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 How could I solve this issue ? - is there a way to force observium to add brackets ? - or maybe even better to force observium to use the hostname "myserver" to connect using snmpget instead of the IPv6 address ?

Hello, I cannot get/graph the interfaces virtual-access (Vi2.X) of a CISCO ASR1001... Virtual-Access interfaces are in PPPoVPDN mode (ASR is an LNS). Do I have to configure a specific module to retrieve information from Virtual-Access ? Thank you !

Hi I have tried to add a device to a partitioned poller, but nothing happens. I can see it in the Poller Actions window, but it seems like it never gets picked up by the poller.

Unable to create web links to Watchdog monitors`
by Joe Brouillette 29 Oct '21

29 Oct '21

Good afternoon, I am trying to create a web page with links to our Watchdog environment monitors and not having any luck. I am using the same syntax I used with the Observium server I had last year and all I'm getting is a pink rectangle with No Auth at the top and the Date/Time indicators at the bottom. I can copy my links and put them in the address bar of my browser and the temperature graph pops right up. I did add the $config['allow_unauth_graphs'] = 0; line to my config.php file. I've been going over my settings and I can't figure this out. What am I doing wrong? I'm running Observium Professional 21.10.11678.
