Re: [Observium] Autodiscover - LLDP discovery
by Adam Armstrong 19 Apr '18

19 Apr '18

The original design of Observium was to enforce valid hostnames. We no longer enforce this for adding devices (because some networks are run by insane people who like looking at huge lists of nearly identical IPs), but a lot of the autodiscovery code still uses sysName and forward dns lookups to verify if a device should really be autodiscovered. Changing this behaviour would involve time, so one would have to be persuasive with one's justification. :> adam. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Christian Eriksson" <christian.eriksson(a)advania.se> To: "observium(a)observium.org" <observium(a)observium.org> Sent: 2018-04-16 11:10:03 Subject: [Observium] Autodiscover - LLDP discovery >Hello > > > >Is it possible for Observium to add devices based on the management >address that is returned by LLDP if SysName does not resolve?

Autodiscover - LLDP discovery
by Christian Eriksson 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

Hello Is it possible for Observium to add devices based on the management address that is returned by LLDP if SysName does not resolve? Don't get me wrong, we use DNS, but sometimes a customer network is not known to us Regards Christian

Feature request: MAC address lookup
by Attila Nagy 13 Apr '18

13 Apr '18

Hi Adam! I was looking at the ARP/NDP table on the Ports page of some of our machines and currently it displays the vendor of the given device in a tooltip. But it would make much more sense to display - if the MAC address is known - the machine that has the given MAC address instead. Opinion? Has this any chance to get implemented? Regards, Tylla

LDAP auth vs AD server
by Elmar K. Bins 11 Apr '18

11 Apr '18

Hello everybody, I can't access the archives somehow, so if there's a simple direct pointer for this... I've played around with the LDAP config quite a bit now to get it to auth users versus our AD server. So far so good, the somewhat obscure OBS_DEBUG option helps. I believe (!) auth works now, but I have an interesting effect and can still not log into Observium: 1. I use my AD user and the WRONG password I get a lot of debug output, ending in - expected - "Invalid credentials". So far, so good. 2. I use my AD user and the CORRECT password I get ZERO output regarding LDAP, I see generic debugging and versioning output though: --------------------------------- CMD[/usr/bin/svn info /opt/observium] CMD EXITCODE[0] CMD RUNTIME[0.015s] STDOUT[ Path: /opt/observium Working Copy Root Path: /opt/observium URL: http://svn.observium.org/svn/observium/branches/stable Relative URL: ^/observium/branches/stable Repository Root: http://svn.observium.org/svn Repository UUID: 61d68cd4-352d-0410-923a-c4978735b2b8 Revision: 9166 Node Kind: directory Schedule: normal Last Changed Author: adama Last Changed Rev: 9073 Last Changed Date: 2018-03-02 22:37:46 +0000 (Fri, 02 Mar 2018) ] ... some MySQL SELECTs ... ending in STDOUT[ anx-i-observium0101 ] × Load class 'Net_IPv6' from '/opt/observium/libs/pear/Net/IPv6.php': OK CACHE DISABLED.

Before I sanitize and share config snippets (which parts would be relevant?) - is this a known issue, or is it special to certain configuration options? Any pointers, help, etc. greatly appreciated. Yours, Elmar.
