SW vs GSW
by bertove＠gmail.com 19 Aug '05

19 Aug '05

Hello, Could someone explain to me how NAV interprets SW and GSW categories. It is not making sense to me. For example, a Cisco Catalyst 6513 has three cards: 1 for switching and 3 for MSFC routing. So I suppose that the first one should be set to SW and the MSFCs to GW. Then, the Catalyst 4006 switches that we use, NAV did not get data when I entered them as SW. It gets all the data when I change them to GSW. However, these 4006 are only doing switching on layer 2. SImilarly for Catalyst 3500 series switches. I could not find anything in the NAV wiki, any information will be appreciated. Thanks!

I've just looked at the code, and what should happen is that if you are logged in as a valid NAV user the buttons should appear. We have occasionally had some problems with this, however, which could be due to the version of Apache/Tomcat in use as well as the Java VM. I see that you are using Linux; have you tried this on Windows? > Also, I have another little problem which you may want to fix; I went to > the user admin to check if 'admin' has all the privileges.

In the mean time you could connect to the navprofiles database and try something like this: UPDATE account SET password='md5'||md5('password') WHERE login='login' Also, please CC the nav-users list when you reply (unless you are including sensitive info you don't want archived). -- Kristian

> Here is the SNMPwalk output for the OID: And what ports do you get listed if you go to the swport report? And what is the output from snmpwalk of 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.5? There might be an issue of some ports being listed, but the OID for the octet counts not existing, which confuses Cricket. -- Kristian

NAV 3 RC2 Foundry Switch Support

I certainly can't promise anything myself, but most Full support for Foundry would involve finding the right OIDs for collecting info about duplex / vlan / trunk status for the ports. It would then be easy to add such support. Even without this we should be able to get Cricket to collect info though. -- Kristian

vlanPlot - Looks very messy
by arajgarh＠iwu.edu 18 Aug '05

Hi, I have entered a few routers and switches for testing. The vlanPlot gets all the links between them, but the view (http://www.iwu.edu/~acm/nav/vlanplot1.png) is rather ugly as compared to what you people have in the wiki (http://metanav.ntnu.no/moin.cgi/NAVScreenShots). I know that a lot of software allow you to drag devices in the traffic map to get a nicer view. Is that possible in NAV or is there some other way to get a view like you have in the wiki? Secondly, as you can see in the above screenshot and in this (http://www.iwu.edu/~acm/nav/vlanplot2.png), the devices are labelled by their ip address. Is it possible to display their SNMP Names instead of the IP address, since with many devices it will be difficult to keep track of the IPs. Ofcourse, one solution would be to assign DNS to the devices but I was wondering if the SNMP names are possible (perhaps by some simple change to the applet code?). Thanks, Aditya Rajgarhia Illinois Wesleyan University >From jsidwell at perisys.net Thu Aug 18 11:48:42 2005 From: jsidwell at perisys.net (Joshua Sidwell) Date: Thu Aug 18 18:49:12 2005 Subject: [Nav-users] Message-ID: <20050818164910.3ECB27FFA(a)fri.itea.ntnu.no> Hello all, I am currenlty having two separate issues with our NAV implementation. The first is that some graphics being generated by Cricket v1.0.5 are not being read back from /tmp. The permissions appear to be correct since we are able to get some graphs to display.

They are: All the info you gave me looks good and at least ports 1-7 and 24 (uplink I assume) should show up. Can you grep the getDeviceData.log file for 'dbfesx424-uunet3.be.weather.com' and give me the output, as well as any messages in the getDeviceData-stderr.log file? Hopefully this will give an indication on why the ports are not showing up. -- Kristian

[Nav-users] postgresql will not allow connections from software after ip-change
by BuleSari＠khio.no 16 Aug '05

Hi, postgresql will not allow connections from software/script after ip-change, I cannot figure out why. If I manually connect to postgresql it works fine. Here are to two transcripts from software output and from terminal output.

Does anybody have an idea of why this is happening? Thanx in advance. Mvh Bulent Sarinc IT.-advisor at KHIO
