All seems works but I get in the WatchDog the error message "ARP records have not been collected in the last 2 days, 13 hours" All services are ruungin (see below) and I can't find any documentation about this error. Any suggestin will be appreciated.

"Reversed" netmap view
by Kadlecsik József 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hi, Instead of the real topology ----------- gsw17a (SW) | kfki-sw (GSW) ---- gsw21 (SW) --- gsw21alag (SW) | ----------- gsw22a (SW) netmap shows a "reversed" topology, as shown in the attachment (full.png), i.e. gsw21 is the farthest from kfki-sw and gsw17a, gsw21alag, gsw22a "connect" gsw21 to kfki-sw. The IP device Neighbors of gsw21 shows the proper topology (gsw21.png) except that kfki-sw is not shown. The IP device Neighbors of gsw21alag shows the wrong topology: neighbor is kfki-sw instead of gsw21 (gsw21alag.png), the same true for gsw17a and gsw22a. The direct neighborship candidate is (partly) consistent with this (other fields are empty, non-related, invalid neighbors not listed): Sysname Interface source Candidate neighbor gsw17a 1/48 cam kfki-sw gsw21alag 1/24 cam kfki-sw gsw21 1/45 cam kfki-sw gsw21 1/107 cam gsw21alag gsw21 1/111 cam gsw17a gsw21 1/112 cam gsw22a gsw22a 1/48 cam kfki-sw kfki-sw Gi1/6 cam gsw17a kfki-sw Gi1/6 cam gsw21alag kfki-sw Gi1/6 cam gsw21 kfki-sw Gi1/6 cam gsw22a The switch types are: kfki-sw Cisco 6506-E gsw21 D-Link DSG-3120-48TC gsw17a D-Link DSG-3120-48TC gsw21alag D-Link DSG-3120-24TC gsw22a D-Link DSG-3120-48TC What can be wrong here? What should I check?

Cisco - linux connection not recognized
by Kadlecsik József 07 Apr '16

07 Apr '16

Hello, We run nav 4.4.3 and are facing a strange problem: A Cisco 6500 (GW) ---- Linux with snmpd (GW) ---- B Cisco 6500 (SGW) Netmap shows that Linux - B Cisco are connected but does not show the connection between A Cisco - Linux. A Cisco IP Device Info, Neighbors does not list Linux. Linux IP Device Info, Neighbors lists neither A, nor B Cisco as neighbor. B Cisco IP Device Info, Neighbors lists Linux as neighbor. The Direct neighborship candidates does not list the connection between A Cisco and Linux. Linux has got IP addresses at both interfaces and added to the database with the IP address facing to B Cisco. We added the suggested interface descriptions to both Ciscos but it did not help. What could we do to get the connection recognized?

Portadmin - Problem with changing Vlan
by Mattias Söderholm 18 Mar '16

18 Mar '16

Hi. For a couple of week ago we could change Vlan in portadmin and save with our HP 5130 switches. But now with Nav 4.4.2 it only show error when saving. It says: Error setting vlan: SNMP Error: inconsistentValue (The set value is illegal or unsupported in some way). What can be the problem? There is error when we try to check connectivity for snmp for one of the switches via SeedDB also. That's because there's something wrong with Chassis detected. It got two Chassis detected and one is down. I have tried to delete the switch and added it again, but the N/A chassis is appearing after a while again! 5130-EI (serial: XXXXXXX, software: 7.1.045 Release 3109P05) <---- Down N/A (serial: N/A, software: 7.1.045) <--- Don't know where this comes from Regards Mattias

No. You should probably look into RANCID [1]. There was at some point some ideas to integrate RANCID and NAV, but the resources were never allocated. At UNINETT we extensively use tftp to store device configs, but storing a running config to the tftp serverr must be initiated from the device itself. RANCID is more proactive in this regard.

syslog integration for procurve
by Richard Reitenauer 09 Mar '16

Is there a way to get procurve syslogs to come into Nav? I think that is the only issue I have and it would be great to alert on them.
