Oliver,



I was wanting to provide my boss with some cools stats but looking at the front 
page of my NetDisco I'm a little confused by this.  How can there only be 
11,558 IP's but 27,974 nodes.  I thought NetDisco considered a node to be 
something that was attached to a switchport.







Statistics for this installation



582 devices with 29,365 interfaces using 1,328 IPs   (device= Switch)

1,977 layer 2 links between devices

27,974 nodes in 39,986 entries

11,558 IPs in 31,229 entries

Statistics took 0 seconds to process.

There's currently no way in the supplied toolset to do this, so you

need to go to the database.



Connect to PostgreSQL ("psql -U netdisco netdisco") then run:



=> DELETE FROM users WHERE admin;



Then run ~/bin/netdisco-deploy. It will offer to create a new admin

user for you.



Hope this helps,



regards,

oliver.

I suspect that a lot of devices don't have IPs in the database. This will 
happen if the MAC-IP mapping isn't in the ARP cache of a device at a point when 
it's macsucked. L2 switches don't provide the information anyway (unless they 
are specifically equipped and configured to snoop the traffic), only L3 devices 
provide it.
So if you don't macsuck your routers, or the IP isn't in the cache when you do, 
then it'll be missing from the table.

I also wonder what happens in a dynamic network (eg with a high turnover of 
guests on a public WiFi) where IPs get reused. There could be several devices 
associated with one IP - hence more devices than IPs.

Good answer Simon, thanks :)

Yes, it ends up looking like this:

346,694 nodes in 802,096 entries
140,473 IPs in 2,602,034 entries

There are other reasons too... if a MAC (node) is on more than one VLAN it could have multiple entries and IPs. Also the expiry policy affects how large these tables get. The above example has many wireless entries, and a very long time before archived entry expiry (for CERT trace reasons).

Hello,

after upgrading to ND2 2.029002 I notice that jobs aren't executed any longer.
My new "housekeeping" entries looks as follows:

schedule:
  discoverall:
    when:
      min: 00
      hour: 20
      wday: 'mon,wed'
  arpwalk:
    when:
      min: 00
      hour: "00,04,08,12,16,20"
      wday: "mon-sun"
  macwalk:
    when:
      min: 00
      hour: "02,06,10,14,18,22"
      wday: "mon-sun"

The only thing I changed was renaming "housekeeping" to "schedule".
Seems that the word changed with this version.
Through the WebGUI the jobs are queued and stay the hole time in that
status not being executed.
Polling devices with netdisco-do from cli is working fine.

My pg_hba.conf looks as follows:
...
# TYPE  DATABASE        USER            ADDRESS                 METHOD
local   all             postgres                                peer
local   netdisco        netdisco                                trust
local   all             all                                     md5
host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            md5
host    all             all             ::1/128                 md5
host    all             all             0.0.0.0/0               md5
# netdisco2 installation
host    netdisco        netdisco        127.0.0.1/32            md5
...

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

Please could you start the daemon in the foreground and see if that shows up a problem?

~/bin/netdisco-daemon stop
~/bin/netdisco-daemon-fg start

You can also set "log: debug" in the configuration file to get more output, if nothing shows up.

regards,
oliver.
