Closing down our IRC channel
by Morten Brekkevold 13 Mai '24

13 Mai '24

Hi everyone! We regret to inform you all that we will be closing NAV's official IRC channel on Libera.Chat by the end of this week. The IRC channel has seen very little activity these last few years, and it's harder to have the younger engineers on our team engage in IRC as a community tool. It seems I'm the only one from our team hanging around the channel, so by "closing" we really mean that I will stop paying attention to the channel, and the navbot will be taken down. Given the activity level of the IRC channel, we don't think anyone will miss it much. Going forward, we encourage you to use the discussion boards on GitHub [1] as a replacement, or just keep using this mailing list :) [1] https://github.com/Uninett/nav/discussions -- Sincerely, Morten Brekkevold Sikt – Norwegian Agency for Shared Services in Education and Research

Ways to limit or disable the newly introduced PoE feature in Portadmin
by Philipp Petermann 26 Feb '24

26 Feb '24

Hi, We just recently upgraded to 5.8. Congrats on the SNMPv3 implementation! However, the new possibility to set PoE on the ports via Portadmin gives us some headaches. We only (if ever) want to allow this feature on certain ports for certain users. Is there a way to limit or disable this feature?

Juniper port configuration
by Simon Brown 14 Des '23

14 Des '23

Hi all, We have got a Juniper switch on loan and I'm trying to configure it with Nav through Napalm. I have five ports in use, but Port admin only offers to set the vlan on two of them. Have I got something wrong in the cli or does the switch need to be rediscovered? Simon -- Simon Brown System Engineer EISCAT Scientific Association P. O.
