Forigate with virtual interfaces only
by Marian Rychtecky 26 Jan '23

26 Jan '23

Hi all, I have a short question: Does each device's main "traffic graph" (aggregated traffic in the overview) only show physical interfaces? Today I installed FG-200F with all interfaces as LAG (LAN and WAN is the LAG interface of 2 physical interfaces). Unfortunately, I cannot see traffic from LAG interfaces counted in total traffic. The main graph looks like traffic is aggregated per physical interface only. Any solution for this, please? BTW - Fortigate is not showing physical interfaces when they are part of LAG.

Syslog host matching with multiple devices and 1 public IP
by mp＠matt-parkinson.co.uk 25 Jan '23

25 Jan '23

Hi, We have recently started using the syslog part of Observium and for the most part it works well where we have multiple public IP's logs are coming from or for places where we have VPN's and can reach devices on their local IP's. We are running into a problem however when we have multiple devices pushing their syslog's to us over a WAN link and they come from the same public IP. We're using the %fromhost% variable in the configuration and all logs seem to end up with the first device that we have set in /etc/hosts to match the public IP. We've tried changing the %fromhost% to %hostname% instead thinking it would use the hostname within the log entry but unfortunately that didn't work either. I've had a look at the documentation on how to do manual matching but I don't think that would help here either as it's only going to match the public IP. Has anyone come up against this before and know if there is a way to resolve it or will I need to create VPN's to each of those sites so we can push the logs over their private IP's instead?

Values keep flapping
by Marian Rychtecky 21 Jan '23

21 Jan '23

Hi all, I'm wondering why a lot of our device's values keep flapping. It's outside of the discovery schedule. Therefore I guess it's something with SNMP timers. It happens on all devices randomly. Does anyone have similar issues? Thank you, Marian -- Marian Rychtecký mr(a)nix.cz Phone +420 724 397 441 NIX.CZ z.s.p.o. Americká 23, Praha 2 130 52 Czech Republic http://www.nix.cz

Good Morning, I am dealing with IT who has no understanding about networks, they have looked at a particular graph on Observium being the device availability and blaming that the issue is the switch based on what they see on the graph. The availability is 100% however there are sections that are shown red. Could you tell me what the red gradings is supposed to represent please?

The Alert checker sends messages if pooled get null for a port parameters
by Vasiliy Moroz 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

Hello Community, Was there anyone who had an issue and could give me advice on how to work around my case described in the attached file ? Briefly: I set an alert checker, it checks the port state "ifOperStatus equals down" wait delay time and sends me the message. The port's operational status is constantly down for a long time. Sometimes the checker get NULL for port parameters so as ifOperStatus is NULL the checker defines it is not equals to "down" and sends me "false" message "Clear" The next check time the checker gets real state ifOperStatus equals down and as Alert was cleared last time so checker creates a new alert and sends me notification. Every time the checker gets null I am getting Clear then Alert notification. If I could operate with the previous state at the checker condition rule I would be set to create an alert only if the previous state was "up" AND the state for now is "down". [image: image.png]

Minimum OID view on Cisco CPE to be pollable by Observium?
by Adam Thompson 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hi, Short of trial-and-error, how can we find the minimum set of OIDs required for Observium to be willing to detect an older Cisco router (e.g. 8xx, 18xx) and add it, so that interfaces can be polled? I already know that if we enable access to ifTable only, Observium doesn't want to play ball and won't add the device. I don't mind reading the source if I have a clue what & where to look for, but I haven't yet found anything promising. Clues, please? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [MERLIN] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca<https://www.merlin.mb.ca/> [cid:image002.png@01D8FEA1.078201A0]Chat with me on Teams<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=athompson@merlin.mb.ca>
