enable CDP on voice ports
by Philipp Petermann 24 Jul '19

24 Jul '19

Hi everybody, I'm Philipp working in the network team of the University of Basel, Switzerland. We use NAV since many years to provide self-service port administration for our colleagues and power users throughout our campus. NAV became a key service that everyone highly appreciates. Many thanks for your great effort at this point! Yesterday I submitted a feature request at github.com, unfortunately _after_ reading "hacking.rst" https://github.com/Uninett/nav/issues/1971 It's about providing an option (because I'm not sure everybody with cisco_voice_vlan = true want's this) in PortAdmin to automatically enable CDP if you check the "Tel" checkbox. We already have a patch for that, however, without the possibility to opt in or out which needs some additional config file parsing. But before I submit anything, what do think about the idea of automatically enable CDP on voice ports? Cheers, Philipp

Removal of XMPP (Jabber) support
by Morten Brekkevold 19 Jun '19

19 Jun '19

Hi everyone, this is just to inform you that we intend to remove support for XMPP (Jabber) notifications from NAV's alert engine for the upcoming feature release. XMPP support is implemented through the `xmpppy` library, which seems to be unmaintained, and is not compatible with Python 3. As we no longer have customers who rely on NAV notifications via XMPP, we will no longer put resources into supporting it, and will be removing it as part of NAV's transition to Python 3. If you are someone who actually depends on XMPP notifications from your NAV, I would urge you to consider contributing a replacement implementation. The only Python-based XMPP implementation currently listed on https://xmpp.org/ seems to be this one: https://lab.louiz.org/poezio/slixmpp The still-open pull request that removes the current implementation can be seen here: https://github.com/Uninett/nav/pull/1889 -- mvh Morten Brekkevold Uninett
