question about cisco switch discovery/polling
we've got a Cisco WS-C4510R+E switch
after discovering and polling it,, it now shows 3 entries for each port
1 is the expected/desired one "64-bit" port
and 2 unknown/undesired "Controlled" and "Uncontrolled" 32-bit ports.
question
why are we seeing them ? how to we get rid of them ?
this is making management of this device painfully slow .. takes more then 30 seconds (closer to one minute) for the page to load
thanks -Steve
$config['bad_if'][] = "virtual-";
Defines a list of interfaces to ignore. Interfaces are ignored if the string is present in ifDescr (case-*IN*sensitive).
Add uncontrolled,
Have 3x 4510 stacks and working fine

thank you.. that worked almost as I had hoped.
what I observed was:
1) i updated config.php as you suggested to include "controlled" .. that would match both "controlled" and "uncontrolled" 2) bounced apache 3) on next poll .. those ports were marked "as deleted" .. and went away from the device "overview" page.. however .. they were still present on the device "port" page 4) I deleted the device 5) added, discovered, polled .. and now looks much better for me .. also historical data (for graphs) was preserved

Don't restart Apache. Never restart Apache. Apache isn't an application server. It's a web server. It parses pages as you load them.
If there was some kind of Observium daemon running in the background, restarting Apache would have no effect on it.
