MySQL App - Seconds Behind Master
by Ximena Cardinali 20 May '14

20 May '14

Hello There, few days ago I implemented the MySQL App Feature on our Observium and it's working like a charm. It brings useful Information for MySQL Cluster Nodes. I'm just missing something, and that's: "Seconds Behind Master" Is there any particular Configuration that I have to implement to make it work or it's not just yet implemented? BTW, I'm running the Open Source Version of Observium running on a Debian Virtual Server. Thanks in advance! Cheers, Ximena. --- *Ximena E.

Observium vs others
by Alejandro Lengua Vega 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hello, I am looking for a tool that can allow me to monitor customer's physical servers as well as my virtual servers (I have some, not too many Linux/CPanel servers and Windows VPS). This is a list of the tools I have been recommended along with Observium https://nodequery.com/ sar newrelic naemon nagios Icinga I think nagios and similars are too much for me, however I don´t know if Observium has all what I need, can you help me with that? Some of the features I need are: 1. Load/performance monitoring applications like Apache, MySQL, Exim (email) 2. Exim queque size (for preventing spam issues) 3. Generate user logins for my customers (so they can see graphics of their servers) 4. Access from mobile Do you think Observium could help me with this?

Auto refresh default setting
by Chris Pelling 18 May '14

18 May '14

Hey guys, Subs version, I like to leave the default view page, as Network >> Bits so that I see ALL spikes fairly quickly, and can react if I see anything, however for the love of god, inc F5 / Hard refresh, I cannot get the screen to default to loading say the last 6 hours. Anyway of doing this, and let me provide the URL I am sitting at : http://my.observiumURL.com/devices/type=network/format=graphs/disabled=0/so… Now anything to make this simply autorefresh in the last 6 hours AUTOMATICALLY would be great - beer tokens available. The reason behind this is a 55" screen that sits on the wall, that at the moment doesn't do what it should do and will shortly be used for plastic gun target with suckers!!!! -- Kind regards, Chris

Dell Hardware Sensors
by Travis Kreikemeier 16 May '14

16 May '14

Very little information about this in the Wiki or configuration guide. I would like to get hardware sensors working in Observium for Dell servers, PE 2950, R310, R610, etc. I want to alert when any sensor is not OK. For example, hard drive failure, power supply failure, etc. >From what I think is possible. That information is available in SNMP on a physical Linux server if you setup SNMP SMUX Peer to the Dell OpenManage agent running on the server? Does Observium support it? However, it appears this is not possible on physical Windows? As well, as it look like that hardware SNMP nformation is not available either on ESXi 5+ because of lack of SNMP support integration with Dell OpenManage agent VIB. I'm on correct on this? Or can Observium get this hardware health from WS-MAN on ESXi, or IPMI to iDRAC hardware card? It would be awesome to see a Observium definitive hardware monitoring guide for Dell and then HP. Any information or help would be appreciated! Observium rocks! Oh, and the Alerting system in Pro is awesome! However, little bit of a learning curve. I created 9 alerts that I think should cover most issues. Such as high cpu, low memory, device down, device rebooted, network port at half duplex, network port down, high port utilization, etc. It would have been ideal if there was a Wiki page with all of those just laid out for examples. Everyone just keeps adding more and more example alerts to that page. TRAVIS KREIKEMEIER

Hey all, I've noticed a display issue on the Edit Bill view, specifically within the Bill Ports section - see attached. The ports display without issue when viewing the bill, but do not appear at all (except for the delete button) in the Edit view. Looks like this issue is present in r5478 and r5492. This isn't a huge deal by any means but if someone could take a look when they have a second, it would be much appreciated. Thanks! Regards, SG

Geocoding shows wrong locations
by Ray, Bjoern Karsten 15 May '14

15 May '14

Hi there, I am running several VLAN in a distributed environment in Germany. I am using the longitude/latitude options to finally not ending up on "An island in the middle of the ocean". Yesterday I added another two VLANs and the map shows devices inside e.g. in India. As I am using private subnet ranges, only, I am wondering why this happens at all and could be done to get over of this little trouble. Subnets I am using are: 192.168.50.0/24 192.168.55.0/24 192.168.60.0/24 192.168.70.0/24 192.168.80.0/24 192.168.90.0/24 192.168.100.0/24 192.168.110.0/24 192.168.120.0/24 ...where the C-octet reflects the VLAN-ID. Thanks in advance!

Upgrading to Observium Professional
by Jeremy Alberts 14 May '14

Hallo, I am thinking about upgrading to Observium Professional. Before I do this however, I was wondering if someone could answer a question. At the moment I am using Observium to monitor all my Cisco switches and Windows servers. The thing I miss the most in Observium Open Source edition is not being able to receive alerts on the following: § Alerting Memory at certain thresholds (Windows machines) § alerting CPU at certain thresholds (Windows machines) § Alerting disk I/O at certain thresholds (Windows machines) Now I thing this is possible with the Professional edition. Can someone confirm that this is the case? With kind regards, Jeremy

Disk i/o statistics

Add device failing
by Robert Williams 12 May '14

12 May '14

Hi, Just tried to add a new device (r5478) but it’s failing with no feedback, even at the command line. root@OBSERVIUM:/opt/observium # php add_device.php server.name.domain Observium v0.14.5.5478 Add Device(s) Try to add server.name.domain: Trying v2c community xyz ... root@OBSERVIUM:/opt/observium# It was ok a couple of days ago and I’m not sure how to try to diagnose this further as there is no feedback either at the command line or the web interface (which just says “Trying v2c community xyx …” the same as the command line does). To rule out a duff device I removed an existing working device and tried to re-add it. Fails with the same error also and I’m unable to re-add that device. Any pointers please? Cheers!

Calix E7-2 port disabling
by Crozier, Doug 11 May '14

11 May '14

I have 14 Calix E7-2 OLTs in this environment that I want to monitor. The first two I added to Observium(PE 5447) showed up with over 1000 ports each. I'd like to disable polling/alerting on all but a handful of ports on each of these devices. I used the "All" button on the device's Ports tab to get this done, but it only disables the first 333 ports. Same behavior on the second OLT. The remaining 900+ ports are all still enabled for polling. Manually selecting the slider for 50 or so of the remaining ports to disable them fails to take effect after clicking "Save". Is there a way to disable the remaining ports, then enable the few that I am interested in? Thanks Doug

dpkg agent oddness
by Robert Williams 10 May '14

10 May '14

Hi All, I’ve just added the dpkg agent script for the agent to a server, it already had other agents on it which are all working OK (apache, ntp etc.). Now, when I ./dpkg locally it gives the package list just fine. However, Observium shows the package list with some extra items at the top which read <blank> and “Fatal error:” [cid:image001.png@01CF6C41.93B4FDE0] Now on every poll (manual or scheduled) I also get the event log entry “System Arch -> Directive” [cid:image002.png@01CF6C41.F2135120] This dpkg script is working fine on all the other hosts I run it on, and everything else is working fine on this particular host apart from this element of the dpkg script. If I run the agent module in debug then I notice that at the end of the script I get: Fatal error: Directive 'allow_call_time_pass_reference' is no longer available in PHP in Unknown on line 0 Fatal error: Directive 'allow_call_time_pass_reference' is no longer available in PHP in Unknown on line 0 ) So I guess this is what is being interpreted by the poller as a ‘package’ and the ‘architecture’ of the system. However, I do not get this error when I run it locally, only when it’s run from Observium remotely. So - Any ideas or suggestions what to try next? Target host is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (3.13.0-24-generic x86_64) and I have several others running 14.04 which are polling fine as far as I’m aware. Cheers!

I'm actually not certain when this started to happen as I've noticed it before, but it seemed like it was just in old events, but now, I've noticed that all relative times are getting computed incorrectly, they'll all show like "364 days, 17h 13m 3s" when you hover for an actual time (system event log particularly) the timestamps are right...it's something going wonk doing date math I'm guessing... 0.14.5.5458 - php 5.4.4 (just svn updated to make sure it wasn't fixed) not sure what else is relevant... -- "Genius might be described as a supreme capacity for getting its possessors into trouble of all kinds." -- Samuel Butler

weekly/monthly reporting tool?
by Joshua Elson 09 May '14

Hi all, I was wondering if there is any sort of reporting tool for Observium? We are looking to get a weekly and/or monthly break down of CPU and memory for all 100 or so of our servers. It has become tedious to go through each server one by one each time we need to gather all these details. As always, thanks in advance!

Add disk status to Buffalo Terastation
by Stefano Cordio 09 May '14

09 May '14

Hey guys, I'd like to implement an addition for my NAS box, a Buffalo Terastation. This NAS sends a daily report about the available space and the state of the disks. Observium already grabs details about the space, so I'd like to also add support to disk status/diagnostics (I already have the needed MIB files). The following is a MIB snippet: ------------------------------------------------------ nasDiskStatus OBJECT-TYPE SYNTAX INTEGER { notSupport(-1), normal(1), array1(2), array2(3), standby(4), degrade(5), remove(6), standbyRemoved(7), degradeRemoved(8), removeRemoved(9) } MAX-ACCESS read-only STATUS current DESCRIPTION "The state of local disks. This value is read from 'diskx' line in file /etc/melco/diskinfo. notSupport(-1) indicates the disk slot is not exist. normal(1) indicates the disk is not part of RAID array. array1(2) indicates the disk is part of array1. array2(3) indicates the disk is part of array2. standby(4) indicates the disk is standby and power-off. degrade(5) indicates the disk has degraded and removed from array, and power-off. remove(6) indicates the disk has removed from array by user and power-off. standbyRemoved(7) indicates the disk is standby and removed from NAS. degradeRemoved(8) indicates the disk has degraded and removed from array and NAS. removeRemoved(9) indicates the disk has removed from array and NAS." ::= { nasDiskEntry 2 } ------------------------------------------------------ I'm not sure which is the best location in the device page for showing these informations. Could we consider these as a kind of sensor or is it something inventory-related? Actually I need a design advice. Would be really nice if you could also give me a pointer to a similar existing code. I strongly believe in learning by example :-) Thanks, Stefano

Selective Alerts?
by Hamilton, Kent 08 May '14

08 May '14

I'm new to Observium, and was playing with email alerting. Is there a way to selectively disable alerts? For example I'd like to disable over-under voltage alerts from systems. Even in my test set up which only includes 300 devices leaving those types of alerts enabled resulted in over 800 emails last night. -- [exegy_119x45_xparent]<http://www.exegy.com/> S.

L2tp not creating interfaces
by Oliver Paget 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi folks, wonderful product :):) I was just wondering if the L2tp section is in dev or is completed. I can't get it to work and as far as I have troubleshooted I can see that there are not any ports being picked up when my lns is scanned for this functionality to work. I haven't configured anything specific, it appears as you just snmp scan the device and it should pick the session tracking up for the l2tp tab. I can see everything else is working, am I missing something> Cheers, OJ

Lost APC Outlet Graphs

I can't pinpoint exactly when it happened but I just noticed this after I updated to the latest subscriber version. I use APC PDUs which allows per outlet SNMP monitoring.

Strange temperature and voltage readings
by Matthew A Harper 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hi Guys, First time posting - Be gentle ;) I've recently implemented Observium for our department and am absolutely loving it. However after an update this morning I have noticed that some devices are reporting weird readings for their sensors. Temperature and voltage specifically are reporting absurd variables (2209 degrees CPU temp / 1.45KV on a 1.2V rail). http://i.imgur.com/MG5NBA8.png - Random sample of temperature http://i.imgur.com/u8Emr3J.png - Random sample of voltage This issue seems to affect CISCO hardware but does not seem to be specific to a particular model or software revision and has only occurred since the DB Schema was updated this morning. Is anyone else seeing similar results with version 5405? Oh and yes, I confirmed these devices are not on fire or being struck by lightning. :) Regards, Matt. *********************************************************************** WARNING: This email (including any attachments) may contain legally privileged, confidential or private information and may be protected by copyright.

2 things with alerting
by Bastiaan Topper 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

Hi, We have 2 strange things with the alerting system since a few days. - 1. The frontpage displays ports up/down, even when the alerting for that port is disabled in the device settings. Is this normal? Because this wasn't till a few days ago. [cid:image001.png@01CF5ED2.3C5BB560] [cid:image002.png@01CF5ED2.3C5BB560] - 2. Some alert checks worked fine for months, but now they fail. (I only have the database output, because the http://observium/alert_checks/ links returns a blank page, maybe because the result is too big?): [cid:image003.png@01CF5ED2.7A406F60] I attached the debug poll of one of the devices. The polling debug output returns: Checking alert 4 associated by 4 replaced @sensor_limit with 5.92 from entity. Testing: sensor_value greater 5.92 (value: 5.187) FAIL replaced @sensor_limit_low with 4.37 from entity. Testing: sensor_value less 4.37 (value: 5.187) OK Checks failed. Generate alert. What I expect (and what it did for the last months) this alert rule to do, is to fail when the sensor value is not between the threshold ranges. It looks like it is only for the voltage and current sensors. [cid:image004.png@01CF5ED4.23531980] When I check the settings and alerting thresholds, they look fine to me. [cid:image005.png@01CF5ED4.23531980] Am I doing something wrong? Or is this some kind of bug? Thanks and regards, Bastiaan Topper

Billing - Circuit ID on main page

My question is in regards to the blue circle with the "i" located on the main billing page. This used to display the circuit ID when you hover the mouse over this icon. Noticed it hasn't been working for me for quite some time. Not sure what revision it stopped. It was very helpful as we have several customers with multiple circuits so now I have to click on each one until I find the circuit ID I am interested in. If there is a way to get this feature re-added then I would greatly appreciate it. If adding it back is complex due to recent code changes then I understand that as well. Just wanted to check.

Device Traffic Overview Graph Legend
by Jake Turner 26 Apr '14

26 Apr '14

Hi all, Just in case anybody else has spotted this and wants to fix it. The problem I was seeing (in the community edition at least) was that when ‘Show Legend’ was clicked on the Device Bits Graph page, the interface names would only have 10 characters as the image below shows: [cid:4474A50E-FFD7-439C-B557-8AB5663E872B@turnerhouse.local] With Cisco devices this renders the legend pretty useless as almost all the interfaces have FastEthernet/GigabitEthernet/TenGig etc. in front of the interface number. To fix this the file /html/includes/graphs/generic_multi_separated.inc.php needs to be modified. Lines 28 & 29 just need more space: $rrd_options .= " COMMENT:'$units_descr Cur Avg Max'"; if (!$nototal) { $rrd_options .= " COMMENT:' Total'"; } Line 81 will have the number 10 after the comma on rrdtool_escape: ($rrd['descr'], 10). This basically strips the interface to that length. In order for the interfaces on my 6500 to show nicely I changed this number to be 25: rrdtool_escape($rrd['descr'], 25). If you decide to go for a different number you should modify lines 28 & 29 too to make sure the ‘Cur, Avg, Max and Total’ headers are in line with the stats below. Then you just need to change for the ‘outbits' as well: substr(str_pad('', 25),0,25). The graph will/should then display like the below. Much more useful :) [cid:937DFBEE-EE5A-4F3E-8B38-AE6466900BE5@turnerhouse.local] An alternative would be to use ifName rather than ifDescr but I can’t be bothered to figure out how to do that.

Failover interface monitoring
by Gregoire Tourres 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

Hello Observium team I am monitoring different kind of devices (linux / windows / cisco) through my Observium. Everything work fine except for some Windows server 2012 network interfaces : the failover interfaces. Microsoft uses some kind of interface to supply a failover service (2 servers of the same kind speaks a special black protocol to monitor themself). >From the Windows Server, interfaces are "Microsoft failover cluster virtual adapter". >From Observium, they are seen as ethernet device and as tunnel device. Observium always seens some packet loss on these interfaces (however, there are no packet loss in the network, even with huge stress). So ... it keeps alerting for packet loss. You would say "turn monitoring or alerting off on these interfaces". Well .. that what I did : But I keep getting some alert in the eventlogs : The others real interfaces on the server work fine (good monitoring, no loss, no alerting). I am only having the problem on these kind of interfaces. Why does Observium always see packet loss on these interface ? Why does Observium do not stop alerting when I tell him to ? Thanks for answer! Greg

VM and Observium
by Luis Quintana 25 Apr '14

So, is anyone experiencing any issues running on observium on a vm? I submitted an email a month or two ago about some issues we were seeing, and i decided to reinstall observium from scratch. Currently i am seeing the same issues, whereby it "appears" that connectivity drops or isnt captured randomly. it's not across one device, but all. i am wondering if maybe i didnt build the vm appropriately or we really are having a network type issue. ive looked at the network but maybe i am overlooking something. anything on the vm side that maybe i can look at? i am running ubuntu 13.04 and the latest observium code as of yesterday.

by Swen Veckes (KDDI) 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

Hi, we use a couple of MLXe’s and ICX’s which seem fine at the first place running observium’s subscriber edition. However, a few part seems not working correctly: + MLXE’s - Memory shown as -1 on the device main page and has no graphs „nan“ at all - Memorypool usage graphs show -nan - Observium recognizes the installed Line card CPU but report 100% CPU on another machine adder 3 month earlier it reports OK - VLAN’s are reported fine, however, on the VLAN tab only untagged vlan1 (default vlan) has port associated with it, others are empt + ICX’s - CPU reported 100% all time, but same switch installed earlier shows fine - Compared to the MLXe it does not show LAG interfaces Any hints on the the graphing which works for one device but another added later does not as well for the memory? I Don’t hink that observium suddenly broke the support for this, as it is still working for the other devices (exactly the same device). What do I need to provide to help fixing the other things such as the LAG display for the ICX or others and to get more current Brocade device support? Cheers, Swen

Adtran Devices

Are there any plans to include better support for Adtran devices - specifically Netvanta and Total Access products? As it is, Observium only shows bandwidth graphs - no processor, memory, etc... Adtran processors can suck so we'd really like to be able to monitor them, but haven't found a product that can do it. Thanks! -Colin

Unable to add Alert

I just upgraded from the CE to Subscription. When I go to add a new alert checker, it tells me: Adding alert checker Alert creation failed. Please note that the alert name must be unique. Nothing is listed in the alert checkers list. I queried the database tables alert_* and they all seem to be empty (as expected). Anywhere else I need to poke/check? Thanks -rich

Edit Alert Checker Details
by Martin Smith 24 Apr '14

All, Quick question about editing alerts. I can't seem to find a way to edit existing "checker details". For example, entity type, name, message or delay. (see image) [cid:image001.jpg@01CF4455.D3B86620] The other two fields "checker conditions" and "associations" both have edit options. Am I missing something obvious?

Hi all, from the comparision page, I can see a check for the Alerting, but also in Brackets Future release. Can anyone confirm what the current status is of the Alertign within the Community edition? I was able to add a new Alert checker with /add_alert_check/, but I'm not able to see it, or have any menu entries for Alerts. Just wanted to confirm that I don't miss anything in the current version I'm using, and that it is not completely included yet. Thanks, Christian

Hello, Is there any way for Observium to generate an SNMP trap instead of an e-mail when there is an alert? Or does anyone know of some way to parse an e-mail to generate a trap using some other software? Erik

Adding MIB after a device...
by Boardman, Nick 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Good afternoon, I added an Eaton ePDU (sensor), and obviously it is showing up as Generic. I meant to upload the MIB prior but forgot. Any chance that after a few pollings it will auto-associate? If not, can it be linked manually? I looked under the Sensors Properties while attempting to edit the device but it looks like a no go. Or, since the MIB is now uploaded is it easier to delete the device and then manually re-add it? Thanks in advance any help you can offer.

Re: [Observium] Adding MIB after a device...
by Adam Armstrong 23 Apr '14

Hi Nick, All a MIB does is translate a numerical index into a text identifier (with some information about what the value contains). We still need to write code to understand the MIB and collect data from it. We do support other devices by this manufacturer, so I'm not sure exactly why it doesn't work, Tom might, though. adam.

Aggregate graphs for Peering Ports
by Tim Calvin 22 Apr '14

22 Apr '14

I was curious if there was a way to group together Peering ports in a way that it shows an aggregate graph similar to how Customer ports are handled. On the customer ports page, I can see an aggregate graph of all a particular customers circuits. It seems all I have to do here is make sure they are named the same. We have a few peering circuits to one entity and it would be nice to have that same behavior. I have them named the same but on the peering page the two circuits are shown individually with no aggregate totals. Just wondering if there was some type of configurable option to enable this or not. Let me know if I need to provide anymore info. Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks, Tim Calvin Texas Lone Star Network

Frontpage Map Zoom

All of our devices are located within the state of Indiana. On the frontpage the map zooms from Utah to Nova Scotia with Indiana in the middle. Of course I can manually zoom in as far as I need but would like the default to zoom 1x more so I can see the entire state of indiana from north to south. Is there a setting in config.php that will let me do that?

After much debugging, tweaking the code and playing around with timestamp to epoch functions I’ve finally managed to get this working and it seems to be pretty accurate (for the Cisco devices at least).

I see what you’re saying when it comes to providing the most compatibility with all the different vendors as they probably report it slightly different (or not at all) and so updating it with 'on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP’ ensures that you’ll always have something there.

graphs for power usage on Tripplite PDUMH30ATNET

Hello, I have successfully added in a Tripplite PDUMH30ATNET. It successfully detects and uses the OPS mib when it sets up and has a nice little tripplite icon. The only thing it seems to be graphing is the Ethernet traffic on the one ethernet interface on the device. What I want to see graphs of are the power usage on each of the power outlets and inputs. Any help would be appreciated. -- Thanks, Jeff Courtade Director of Systems Engineering Adjuggler Inc http://www.adjuggler.com M: 240.507.6116

Port 'Last Changed' visibility

19 Apr '14

Hi all, I can't seem to see this feature on the port details page or the 'all ports' list but forgive me if it is visible somewhere. It would be useful to have a 'last changed' time (30 mins ago) etc... on the port details page. This info can be gained from SNMP and from what I can see is already in the DB so it would just be a case of adding it to the page code. Thanks Jake

Interface pop up bubble "up"
by David Peall 18 Apr '14

18 Apr '14

Hi I’ve got a problem on the interface where the pop up blocks the mouse pointer from clicking on the interface link, i.e. the mouse pointer is inside the bubble. For interfaces at the bottom of the page when the bubble goes up, down ones are fine. Regards — David Peall

1 rogue host on map in the mid Atlantic
by Ryan Prihoda 17 Apr '14

17 Apr '14

Hey all, I recently updated to the new community edition and once everything was up again, I have 1 rogue host showing in the mid Atlantic on the map. None of my hosts use the override "syslocation" function. The number of devices in "All Locations" is equal to devices my syslocation. Here's the kicker, when I click on the rogue host, it takes me to my devices page for my syslocation. Is there anything I can do to figure out what device is causing this issue ? Thanks, R. Prihoda

IP address weirdness
by Sander Steffann 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hi, This morning at 6:30 the IPv4 addresses of my servers suddenly started changing. I see a lot of messages like: IPv4 changed: 83.247.10.20/27 -> 83.247.10.20/3 IPv4 changed: 83.247.10.21/27 -> 83.247.10.21/3 IPv4 changed: 83.247.10.22/27 -> 83.247.10.22/3 IPv4 changed: 94.142.242.194/29 -> 94.142.242.194/5 IPv4 changed: 94.142.242.195/29 -> 94.142.242.195/5 IPv4 changed: 94.142.242.213/29 -> 94.142.242.213/5 IPv4 changed: 94.142.242.214/28 -> 94.142.242.214/4 IPv4 changed: 94.142.242.215/28 -> 94.142.242.215/4 IPv4 removed: 127.0.0.1/8 Besides showing me that I have some misconfigured subnet masks in the 94.142.242.208/28 subnet, it also seems to have some consistency: - A /27 turns into a /3 - A /28 turns into a /4 - A /29 turns into a /5 My VMware ESXi machines also suddenly show: IPv4 added: 83.247.10.11/32 IPv4 added: 83.247.10.12/32 IPv4 added: 83.247.10.13/32 I also noticed some broadcast addresses being added: IPv4 added: 83.247.10.31/27 (this is an Ubuntu 14.04 server with 83.247.10.29/27) IPv4 added: 83.247.10.31/27 (this is is a CentOS 5.10 server with 83.247.10.7/27) IPv4 added: 83.247.10.47/28 (this is a vcenter applicance) IPv4 added: 83.247.10.47/28 (this is a Dell DRAC card) IPv4 added: 127.255.255.255/8 (this is a vcenter applicance) So, subnet sizes went weird on some systems, 127.0.0.1 disappeared from some systems, some ethernet adapters now show both the real IP address and the broadcast address on some systems. But different mixes of results across different platforms. Might this be related to r5317? Cheers, Sander

dot1dbaseportifindex on Cisco not listing UP interfaces?
by Ulrik Ivers 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hi, I see a strange behavior on our Cisco-switches (different models) when listing the interfaces via SNMP using the mib BRIDGE-MIB. When walking dot1dbaseportifindex it excludes interfaces that are UP. Only interfaces that are DOWN or DISABLED are returned. Is this something that is well known? Seems to me that is a bug in ios... It breaks neighbor discovery via LLDP (lldp-mib.inc.php). Examples: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cisco Switch - ports 1-7 are UP, the rest DOWN /usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c 'XXXX' -OQUs -m BRIDGE-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'test-host' dot1dBasePortIfIndex dot1dBasePortIfIndex.8 = 10108 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.9 = 10109 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.10 = 10110 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.11 = 10111 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.12 = 10112 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.13 = 10113 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.14 = 10114 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.15 = 10115 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.16 = 10116 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.17 = 10117 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.18 = 10118 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.19 = 10119 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.20 = 10120 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.21 = 10121 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.22 = 10122 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HP 10 port switch , all interfaces are always listed /usr/bin/snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c 'XXXX' -OQUs -m BRIDGE-MIB -M /opt/observium/mibs/rfc:/opt/observium/mibs/net-snmp 'udp':'test-host' dot1dBasePortIfIndex dot1dBasePortIfIndex.1 = 1 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.2 = 2 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.3 = 3 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.4 = 4 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.5 = 5 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.6 = 6 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.7 = 7 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.8 = 8 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.9 = 9 dot1dBasePortIfIndex.10 = 10 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
