i am using tkined 1.4.9 running on a linux server (linux 1.2.13). is there
a newer version ? maybe another version running under another operating
system ??
we have a large company network with about 150 nodes and some smaller ones.
it was no problem to discover the smaller ones using ip-discover, but when
i tried to discover the large one it lasted very long (over night). but
when i start it now i get no result, even when waiting so long.
is there a possibility to see where ip-discover stops or hangs up ?
our main part is a 3com super stack switch, in my opinion it is a very big
step if i could monitor this stack, this would give me a glance into our
network.
but till now i couldnīt manage more than getting some little graphics
showing the round trip time and the interface load (snmp monitor) for the
24 ports.
one thing is that if i pull out one cable out of the port and plug it into
another one (being not used till this point of time) ... my graphics do not
show this change ... the old port (now being empty) is still active shown
... and the former empty one but now used one is shown as inactive (down)
... strange ... isnīt it ?
the other thing is that i tried to monitor some values except these two
ones already mentioned. but i do not know how to do it. I checked the snmp
and the icmp statistics ... then i tried to monitor the names i got there.
these things worked, but i am not able to get any other information out of
this damned stack.
i also tried to change values via snmp-browser ... but even the syscontact
value was not changeable ...
the error message was: nosuchname 1 {1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 {octet string}
{mynewtext}}
i have to admit that i feel very helpless dealing with all these things ( i
never had to cope with networkmanagement before) ... but even the getting
started, the faq and some newsgroups-messages have not been a big help for
me ... maybe somebody out there could be ;)
thanx a lot
