Hello, I have a problem with portadmin and CISCO switches. The portadmin is not showing any changable entries when I connect nav-portadmin to a cisco switch. Other brands like netgear, tp-link, hirschmann are working good. Sorry If I post the question to the wrong place. Please help me to find the right place to post. Best Regards, Klaus

nav 5.3 - alertengine not sending alert / blacklisted and connection timeout (error 110)
by Andrea Verni 26 Aug '22

26 Aug '22

Hi, I'm running NAV 5.3 and have issue with alertengine and email notifications. Email seems to remain stuck in the queue until I force a reboot of the VM. The error message I see in /var/log/nav/alertengine.log is: 2022-03-08 08:35:10,707 [WARNING] [nav.alertengine.alertaddress.send] Not sending alert 5824 ****** as handler Email is blacklisted: [Errno 110] Connection timed out 2022-03-08 08:35:10,716 [WARNING] [nav.alertengine.alertaddress.send] Not sending alert 5825 to ****** as handler Email is blacklisted: [Errno 110] Connection timed out 2022-03-08 08:35:10,720 [INFO] [nav.alertengine.check_alerts] 0 new alert(s), sent 0 alert(s), 910 queued alert(s), 0 alert(s) deleted, 910 failed send(s), 0 ignored However, by running a tcpdump I do not see any outbound/inbound connection to the configured email server. After the reboot it seems messages are going through (and I do see outbound connections to the configured mail server) 2022-03-08 08:39:38,277 [INFO] [nav.alertengine.alertaddress.send] alert 5367 sent by Email to ****** due to immediately subscription 2 2022-03-08 08:39:38,500 [INFO] [nav.alertengine.alertaddress.send] alert 5320 sent by Email to ****** due to immediately subscription 2 2022-03-08 08:41:34,963 [INFO] [nav.alertengine.check_alerts] 0 new alert(s), sent 910 alert(s), 0 queued alert(s), 0 alert(s) deleted, 0 failed send(s), 0 ignored I'm running Debian 10 and not have iptables/fail2ban on it. Any help? Thanks! Andrea

Re: wrong Port configuration status for juniper device if port manually disabled
by FOUR Ludovic (EXT) 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Hello, I just forgot to reply to all, my bad sorry I leave all the comments below I took a look into ipdevpoll.log When I'm updating a port, there is new [INFO schedule.netboxjobscheduler] line into ipdevpoll log, means that the scheduler is doing fine. I still have the same issue with portadmin enabled checkbox : if you uncheck enabled box, save, then reload page, the checkbox goes back to checked, and remains in this state. - but it updates the interface - (disabled) I've made some setup to portadmin.conf, and changed link_edit = false (better not cut the tree branch where you are sitting on) but I don't think it's related to.

What ports NAV knows about is only updated by the inventory job, which runs every 6 hours. However, ipdevpoll does show some restraint from deleting any interface as soon as it appears missing (some devices can be wonky) - it actually marks it internally with a "missing since" timestamp, and removes it only when it remains missing after certain amount of time. I don't recall the exact amount, but I'm guessing 24 hours. > Maybe a SSL cache issue on server side ? > I'm using standard apache mod ssl settings > SSLSessionCache shmcb:${APACHE_RUN_DIR}/ssl_scache(512000) > SSLSessionCacheTimeout 300 No, this is unrelated to content caching. -- Sincerely, Morten Brekkevold Sikt – Norwegian Agency for Shared Services in Education and Research

wrong Port configuration status for juniper device if port manually disabled
by FOUR Ludovic (EXT) 30 Mar '22

30 Mar '22

Hello, I found a problem wih NAV portadmin configuration page for Juniper EX series I ran wildcard changes to unused interfaces, and I disabled them manually with junos set command [ set interfaces <port number> disable ] However, in the NAV portadmin page configuration, the port status of those interfaces is still enabled. (checkbox checked) Interface => NAV: enabled / JunOS: disabled When I uncheck the enable checkbox, and save changes, the NAV portadmin page show disabled, and the port is still disabled in junos console. Interface => NAV: disabled / JunOS: disabled If enable and save changes again into NAV, and the port is next enabled in console. Interface => NAV: enabled / JunOS: enabled If I manually update the interface description with junos set command, and update NAV portadmin page, the description field is updated. Does NAV run netconf or snmp checkings before showing the portadmin page, or it does only rely on last database readings for portadmin state ? It makes some confusion, because we think the interface is enabled and working into NAV portadmin page, but it's not in reality. Regards, Ludovic FOUR SSI DR10 CNRS - Support Infoprox Pharma FRANCE

NAV - Palo Alto ARP table import for Machine Tracer
by Mehmet E. Şahin (BAŞKANLIK-BİDB) 28 Jan '22

28 Jan '22

Hi Everyone, We have NAV to monitor network switches and also Palo Alto Firewall. We can only use Palo Alto api to query its arp table as it does not support it over snmp. Could there be a way to import those ARP records from palo alto firewall to NAV periodically ? We are asking this because the machine tracer tool on NAV is very useful and would be great if those arp recods from palo alto to be imported to the NAV. Best Regards Mehmet Emin Şahin

Hello, Nav has a Power distribution equipment category. Is there any guidance on what is supported by default? Is there a standard MIB lik IF-MIB or is this all vendor specific?
