Announcement: NAV 4.9.0 released - now under GPLv3 license
by Morten Brekkevold 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

The initial feature release of the 4.9 series of NAV is now out! The source code is available for download at GitHub [1]. New packages for Debian 8/9 (Jessie/Stretch) are available in our APT repository [2] as usual. The Debian packages have been rebuilt using dh-virtualenv, which means that most of the Python dependencies are now embedded into the packages themselves. If you have previously added a priority apt pin for packages from apt.uninett.no, you may now remove it, as there are no longer any other packages needed from that repository to run NAV. Please also be extra aware of config file changes. Look out for `*.dpkg-dist` files in /etc/nav and make sure to update your running config. The virtual appliance will not be updated until next week. Changes ======= ############################################################# ## NOTICE OF LICENSE CHANGE ## ############################################################# ## ## ## NAV's copyright license has changed from GPL v2 to GPL ## ## v3. Please refer to the release notes [4] for details. ## ## ## ############################################################# User-visible features and improvements: * #1423 (Add API endpoint for accounts and account groups) * #1509 (Add active alerts tab for port details page) * #1646 (Add event/alert details page) * #1615 (Room view - want device/interface count) * #1624 (Add support for Dell DNOS-SWITCHING-MIB) * #1659 (Add an interface browser tool) * #1662 (Business reports, device availability - filter for maintenance) * #1667 (More interface information for linkState alerts in status tool/widget) * #1705 (Enable use of api endpoint without specifying version) * #1706 (Audit log when users operates as other user) * #1739 (PortAdmin - users should not be able to set trunk on port) * #1758 (Writable vlan and prefix endpoints) * #1761 (API netbox endpoint: filter on type__name) * #1791 (Implement IT-WATCHDOGS-V4-MIB and GEIST-V4-MIB) * #1807 (Implement support for Powertek PDU inlet status) * #1817 (Add hook to customize tabs in ipdevinfo and info/room) Fixed GitHub issues in this release: * #1683 (Avoid "magic" Django bootstrapping in nav.models) * #1703 (Upgrade Django Rest Framework) * #1709 (Rename verb for changing interface admin status) * #1728 (Upgrade python-ldap) * #1744 (Replace automake toolchain with setuptools) * #1752 (No warnings for Django 1.8) * #1786 (Make middlewares work correctly on Django 1.10+) * #1796 (A crashing search provider will crash the entire search ui) * #1798 (Environment sensor rack API crashes on missing sensors) * #1799 (Portadmin errors out if making changes after using browser back button) * #1800 (Alert profile listing "Remove selected" button needn't be visible when there are no profiles to select.) * #1801 (Network Explorer MAC search always crashes) * #1802 (Saving a threshold rule without a target crashes with a KeyError) * #1803 (ipdevpoll should be able to perform reverse DNS lookups using /etc/hosts file) * #1804 (Unrecognized neighbors report crashes with 'bogus escape (end of line)') * #1814 (Change the NAV license from GPLv2 to GPLv3) * #1819 (/prefix/usage API endpoint crashes instead of returning 404 on non-existent prefixes) Happy NAVing everyone!

Hi, I have installed the latest version of NAV (4.8.6) and have added some of our Extreme switches. SNMPv2-MIB :: sysDescr.0 = STRING: ExtremeXOS (X440-48p-10G) version 16.2.2.4 16.2.2.4-patch1-3 by release-manager on Fri Feb 17 08:00:10 EST 2017 However, I get the following error message in the log file ipdevpoll.log --- 2019-01-24 11: 33: 09,664 [WARNING nav.mibs.entity_mib.entitymib] [statuscheck ex035.inet.hb.se] device response has bad table index .19.48 in ENTITY-MIB :: entPhysicalTable, ignoring --- What does this mean? Is there a solution? Are extreme switches supported by NAV? Sincerely Per-Olof Axelsson University of Borås

We observe a WS-C93XX (Catalyst 93xx Switch Stack from cisco) where for some MAC-addresses information about switch port is missing. All jobs have run recently, no error message about the topo job in ipdevpoll.log. Any ideas? --Ingeborg -- Ingeborg Østrem Hellemo -- ingeborg.hellemo(a)uit.no Dep. of Information Technology --- Univ. of Tromsø

Get time out when accessing nav/ipdevinfo/{device}
by Jo Øiongen 05 Nov '18

05 Nov '18

Hi! Upgraded to latest and greatest a couple of days ago. After that everything works, except accessing devices. I have http://nav/ as my NAV URL root. Trying to access http://nav/ipdevinfo/{device} gives: Gateway Timeout The gateway did not receive a timely response from the upstream server or application. Can someone please point me in the right direction for where to start to look? I did a double upgrade. Debian and NAV. To get Debian up and running, including going from PostgreSQL 9.4 to PostgreSQL 9.6 I had to make some room on the hard drive. So I did a "cd /var/lib/graphite/whisper/nav/devices/" + "rm -rf *" Did I mess up here? BR, Jo
