Problems with getDeviceData

I have no problems with wsc2948, cat2950, wsc4006, cat4506, > cat295024G You can try to set the uptodate field in the netbox table to false to re-detect OIDs since it seems like the OID tester was not able to properly detect all OIDs. Use the following command: UPDATE netbox SET uptodate=false WHERE ip='<ip>'; We should probably add a link to the IP device center for re-testing OIDs for a device. -- Kristian

NAV doesn't show some data
by bertove＠gmail.com 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

Hi: I got nav installed and running for the most. However there is one feature that is important to me and I can't see it (although I'm sure it's there, probably my configuration is bad). When I track a machine by the mac address, I want to see which port of which router it is connected to, so that I can take off the machine immediately (physically) if I need to. RIght now, for example, I have a core switch 10.0.0.5 and there's a router 10.0.6.1 which is connected to the core. So if I track (by mac address) a machine connected to 10.0.6.1, nav tells me that it is connected to 10.0.0.5, which doesn't help me since I want to know the port on 10.0.6.1. By the way, data is being colected by cricket (I can see in the graphs). What could it be then? Is it due to wrong type selection for the ip devices? Regarding that, does it make a difference if I select GSW for all switches (SW and EDGE) ? Thanks!

NAV 3 RC2 Foundry Switch Support
by chouston＠gmail.com 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

Hi Guys, I am liking NAV quite a bit here, and would like to know how to get some of my Foundry stuff working a little better with it. For instance, I have a 7140 that currently (until next Tuesday morning) is providing gateways for a back-end network at a colocation facility. For it's directly connected networks, I can get MAC information in the machine tracker. This is highly cool. The design we have adopted as our standard since moving up to gigabit interconnections employs two Foundry FES X448 distribution switches running VRRP-E to float the gateway. The edge switches are connected to both of these distribution switches using 1q trunks, and the VLANs we extend to the edge are running spanning tree. The distribution swithces are connected back to a carrier network via /30 subnets, and routes are learned by them from the carrier using OSPF. In the machine tracker, I cannot search for MAC information for any of the networks owned by my Foundry switches. I can get DNS reverses, but not MACs. This would be a very cool and needed thing for us. Also, the EdgeIrons are in the database, but I get pretty much no information for them that I can find. No port information or anything. I am thinking the problems I am having are related to what SNMP information getDeviceData knows how to ferret out of the devices, but this may very well be the wrong impression to have. What information would I need to supply from either Foundry documentation, or NAV application logs that might help figure out how to fix this stuff? -- Later, Carlton Houston chouston(a)gmail.com

NAV 3 RC2 General Question
by chouston＠gmail.com 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

Hi All, First, I think this project has a great deal of potential, but it's merely a feeling at this point. I can't get much of anything to work. I have stopped getting python errors for the things I have been trying to get working. This without changing any code, just ironing out the details of how things should be installed, etc. I have added several switches, none of which were recognized types. These are: Foundry EdgeIron 24G-A (4) Foundry FastIron x448 Premium (2) Foundry EdgeIron 48G (1) Cisco 7140 (1) Again, this is just a few little things to start to get a feel for how things are supposed to work in NAV. I did snmp queries for the numeric value of the SysObjectID for each type, and with the exception of a difference in the 24 port edgeirons, I think because of a code revision, NAV was completely happy, and felt it recognized each box type as I added them. It was able to record the serial numbers on the edgeiron switches and the cisco 7140. I don't think the FES exposes the serial number via the console or SNMP. I get nothing in cricket at all, even though I think I have all the dependencies, etc. Until 4pm yesterday, I was getting this error in the getDeviceData.log file. It stopped mysteriously: getDeviceData.log:Aug 09 15:59:37 2005 getDeviceData_01 QUERY_NETBOX_T01-3-RUN Caught exception, should not happen: snmp/SNMPException Now I get this: Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-5-UPDATE_TYPES Num types: 33, num OIDs: 168, new oidQ: 0 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: wcuunet.be.weather.com Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: twccore448-2.be.weather.com Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: twccore448-1.be.weather.com Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: 192.168.69.23 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: 192.168.69.21 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: 192.168.69.22 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: 192.168.69.24 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: 192.168.69.25 Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-6-UPDATE_NETBOXES No OIDs found for netbox: wxcat2.be.weather.com Aug 10 11:54:37 2005 getDeviceData UPDATE_DATA-5-UPDATE_NETBOXES Num netboxes: 9 (9 high, 0 new, 0 removed, 0 skipped, 0 runq, 0 active) That actually looks fine, except that I have no idea how to add an OID, and I am at a loss as to where to find documentation for it. I did a psql query on the snmpoid table, but I am unclear as to what OID I should throw in for, say, interface stats, and what response I am looking for. Any help here would be nice. Also, I get nothing but the java application with the refresh button, etc, on the vlanMap. How do I make that show stuff? There's also nothing at all listed in the network explorer. When I go into the manage devices thing, it sees all the boxes, but lists no modules for any of them. What does that mean? Any help with any of this would be greatly appreciated. -- Later, Carlton Houston chouston(a)gmail.com

Traffic Map shows nothing :/

I've added a few IP devices and they show up fine. But when I click on the traffic map, all I see is the applet loading up (with the java logo). I wait but nothing happens. It's not the browser since I've tried from many computers. By the way, I'm using SSL. Any ideas?

Re: Error in installing nav on RHEL4
by roger.aas＠hsh.no 09 Aug '05

Hi Peder. Try editing /etc/selinux/config and setting SELINUX=disabled, then rebooting and test the same again. If it works it is SElinux that stops it from working. You could also try setting it to permissive, then you will only get audits about it but it should work. I see that there is no settings for the python-lib in the file /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts so that may be the reason it complains. - Roger Peder Magne Sefland wrote: > But I installed SUlinux and firewall. > > When I tried to access the webpage I get this error > > Mod_python error: "PythonHeaderParserHandler nav.web" > > Traceback (most recent call last): > > File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/mod_python/apache.py", line 299, in HandlerDispatch > result = object(req) > > File "/usr/local/nav/lib/python/nav/web/__init__.py", line 55, in headerparserhandler > nav.web.auth.authenticate(req) > > File "/usr/local/nav/lib/python/nav/web/auth.py", line 90, in authenticate > conn = db.getConnection('navprofile', 'navprofile') > > AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'getConnection' > > > And on the console I get even more errors > > # audit(1123578062.447.0): avc: denied { execute } for pid=1791 comm=httpd path=/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/psycopgmodule.so dev=dm-0 ino=489605 scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_t tcontext=root:object_r:etc_t tclass=file
