Configuration of Situation
-
Hi!
Situations will not help this. Source of this problem is that node behind the switch/router can be polled before switch or router that is down, so NetXMS still consider it up and so mark node as down before marking router as down. This problem will be addressed in upcoming 1.2.5 release (issue https://www.radensolutions.com/chiliproject/issues/180).

Hi,
I saw that 1.2.5 has been released earlier this month and that the problem of this thread has been addressed. Is it done automatically or are there any specific things to configure to have this working?
Thanks,

Hi!
This is done automatically. The only requirement is that NetXMS server must know full route to the nodes, so intermediate routers must be accessible and provide routing information.

Cool,
I'll try that in a couple of days. That means that node downs won't be reported if the switches that the device connects to is down? What if the switch comes back up
All my routers and switches are Cisco 2960S and 4507, and NetXMS has access to those switches via SNMP, this setup should be fine right?

Hi!
Yes, it should work. You should get SYS_NODE_UNREACHABLE instead of SYS_NODE_DOWN, and node should go to UNKNOWN state instead of CRITICAL. It then become NORMAL again when connectivity restored.

Hi,
I upgraded my installation with version 1.2.5 yesterday on my customer site and luckily it's the day that they also schedule some power testing so I was able to check this functionality. However I didn't seem to see any difference with before. I still got all my NODE_DOWN events, and I didn't see any SYS_NODE_UNREACHABLE.
Thought that SYS_NODE_UNREACHABLE is actually in the list of events, so version wise I think I'm good.
Anything I could do to get this to work?
Thanks,

Hi!
Is it possible to send me diagram of how nodes and management server are connected? You can send it to my e-mail to avoid posting on the forum.

Hi Victor,
Did you get my email? I sent you a diagram of how my network is arranged.
Thanks,

Hi!
Yes, I got it. Sorry for not responding, I didn't have time yet to work on it. I hope I'll do that in a next few days.

Ok,
Thanks a lot.
