Removing Apache Dependency Requirement?
by Justin Partain 16 Des '16

16 Des '16

So, what are the chances that the Apache requirement can be removed/laxed in leu of any other web server? Especially since its a fallback system and if one tries to install nav on a machine that already has NGINX on it, it downright fails.

Hello, We are trying to implement nav as our monitoring system but got into a problem that nav does not have the device types we are using example (Mikrotik ccr series routers) as a result the port details are not shown .

Update device name
by Orzakiewicz Cedric 06 Des '16

06 Des '16

Hi, I am running NAV 4.6.0 I successfully added some devices. Then I noticed that they had no name, only their IP as device name. So I added the corresponding entries to my DNS server. Unfortunately, NAV has kept the IP as name and does not update the device name field automatically. Can anyone help me on this issue ? Thank you.

NAV Migration
by a.anderson＠tees.ac.uk 24 Nov '16

24 Nov '16

Hi We recently upgraded from 4.4.3 to 4.5.3 by building a new server with the supplied ovf file, and migrated the database using the procedure referenced in the following link. https://nav.uninett.no/doc/4.5/howto/migrate-data.html The cli command we used to restore used the --drop-database --create --restore switches on the new server. We now not the directory structure seems for the cam, arp folders is now / api/1/arp, whereas on the 4.4.3 box it was /api/arp. Is this due to the restore method we have used or has the directory structure changed Many thanks

Upgrade Debian and NAV from 4.4.4 to latest

Hi, we are running NAV 4.4.4 on a dedicated Debian Wheezy box with backports enabled. AFAIK we have to upgrade Debian from Wheezy to Jessie to get the latest NAV release. Can I just replace wheezy to jessie in sources.list and nav.list and do an upgrade/dist-upgrade? -- MVH / REGARDS: Espen Lorentzen esplor(a)gmail.com

Hello. A fellow UK university colleague recommended NAV, and having just taken a look I've fallen at the first hurdle of SNMPv3 support. I've noticed some references to this being in worked on, is there a rough timescale for when this might be available in a release or for beta testing?

Additional equipment OID addition.

Hi, I'm working on a project to replace all polled data collections we have running on Cacti for our network devices ( Cisco, F5, Brocade, Sanbox, ..... ) to graphite. Actually your tools is the only one using graphite out of the box and I was wondering how much work it would be to add unsupported monitoring MIBs and if there would be some example other than https://nav.uninett.no/doc/4.2/hacking/adding-environment-probe-support.html ? Actually all exotic devices are showing values for their network interfaces but most are not retrieving CPU/Memory and other specific data. Thanks Marc TRANI

Problem: NAV alerts not working
by Patricio, Oscar (Coriant - PT/Lisbon) 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

Hi all, I've been trying NAV out for the third time now, as I am experimenting with several similar tools. First of all, I really like NAV and it is the tool that shows the most potential from all I tried, in terms of network monitoring. BUT (there is always a but in theses emails), I am having trouble getting thresholds and their respective alerts to work. I have really kept my installation to the simples possible, so at the moment I only have one device and I have only setup one single threshold, purposefully so that it immediately is exceeded. But after I do that, there is no event and it is as though the threshold has not been exceeded. When I look into the thresholdmon.log this is what I see repeatedly: 2016-09-21 14:40:01,992 [INFO nav.thresholdmon] evaluating 1 rules 2016-09-21 14:40:02,513 [WARNING nav.thresholdmon] did not find any matching values for rule u'nav.devices.XXXXXXXXX.ports.Bridge-Aggregation1.ifInOctets' <50% 2016-09-21 14:40:02,513 [INFO nav.thresholdmon] done What does this mean? This interface has traffic and that traffic is beeing graphed without issues... So my question is: what am I missing? This is supposed to be very simple to configure but apparently does not work. Am I doing some basic error? Thank you for your attention. Best regards, Óscar

The `-f` switch is to run ipdevpoll in the foreground instead of the background. You will still need to add the `-s` switch if you want output to your terminal and not just to the log file. You can manipulate log levels of various parts of NAV using the `logging.conf` configuration file. There are some examples of level configuration in that file already, but you can add `nav.ipdevpoll = DEBUG` to debug-log everything ipdevpoll-related (which can be quite a lot of output). -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT

Netmap question
by etiennel＠cos.flag.org 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

Hello, Very nice piece of software - most useful network monitoring tool I have seen in the open-source world. I have a question on the Netmap tool - I'm trying to have external links show and I wasn't able to. The scenarios are: - Edge router connected to the ISP. I can't add the ISP as a netbox as I don't have SNMP query access. So I added it as a server. How can I show on Netmap the edge router, the ISP end-device with a link between the two so I can see the bandwidth utilization and status? - A similar scenario, but with VPNs. I have a VPN router with multiple Tunnel interfaces (Csico) establishing a VPN with remote offices. I don't have SNMP of the remote offices' routers. How can I show this in Netmap tool - showing my VPN router with links to remove devices. I was able to do a similar thing with computers plugged into my switches, but in this case, I guess NAV uses the MAC address to match the device (in this case environment monitoring) with the switch port. Thank you. Etienne

Hi all, We are test driving NAV. I just have nav-4.5.3 installed on our CentOS7 test box. I can now log into the web console and start to add devices. But when I launch the daemon, the ipdevpolld will never stay up, I just wonder I can debug this problem, ipdevpoll does not have any information about why ipdevpolld won't stay up.

Hello, I'm using nav in a "simple" lab environment. I have a firewall (Juniper SRX3400) acting as GW/Router between Vlans that are distributed in some rooms thanks to switches (Cisco and Juniper).

The third maintenance release of the NAV 4.5 series is now out. The source code is available for download at Launchpad [1].

Changes ======= The following reported bugs have been fixed: * LP#1592747 (Cisco chassis serial number decoding report should include modules as well) * LP#1597666 (No data collected on some Comet web probes) * LP#1608869 (graph widget does not update) * LP#1608920 (make graph widget time controls optional) * LP#1619136 (Specifying both starttime and endtime values crashes the arp API endpoint) * LP#1619138 (Searching for IP addresses in the arp API endpoint is horribly inefficient) The fix for LP#1619138 also entails that searching for IP prefixes is also possible on the `arp` API endpoint.
