NetBrain Platform

When I calculate paths, the system creates duplicates of defined devices causing branches in the diagrams despite ultimately finding the correct path.  My example is to calculate a path from the FrontServer to an switch at another facility.  The system duplicates the first hop as both the defined gateway device and also an End System (not defined).  The path for the end system ultimately fails, and the defined gateway device path works.  I will also share that a Trace works correctly.Does anyone know how to prevent the undefined End System from being created?

Is there a report/export that will give you the fields in SDS such asMode: Access Mode: Port: Username: Privilege Username: Jumpbox for FS:as well as the usual device fields Device Name, Mgmt IP, etc….   

Is there an option to create a report of all the devices with a configuration drift. Also know as a differential (diff) between device configurations and a golden config? Ideally I do not select each device and compare configurations.

I’m looking to create a Run Book or Intent that will show me mac addresses only for specific interfaces on a Cisco switch in support of a CRQ network change. I don’t want to see 20 or 30 interfaces, just the 5 I am changing. Then I’d like to compare a before and after on just those five interfaces. 

Hello,could anybody share an experience how to overcome the limitations of site NetBrain site maps?Having a single L3 and L2 map available only, e.g.?Let’s say I’d like to create another L3  or L2 page focusing on DMZ only, showing more details (or other subnets/links) than the default L3 page used for the whole site?I know I can duplicate the default L3 or L2 page.But the duplicated page will not get the devices updated automatically.On the other hand: I was thinking about using the duplicated page as a “snapshot” of the default L3 or L2 page. But no matter of page settings I use, the links are always updated by daily benchmarks on the duplicated pages. So the only way to keep the links not updated is to save the map as a file to my private folder?Any ideas? Thanks,Milan    

Hi Team, Can you please let me know how we can accomplish this in a Qapp - Sending email to stakeholders Only if certain conditions are met.  Thanks  !

Looking for some resolution on the above error. While discovering the device using seed discovery i am getting the below error:Failed:SNMP++ Get Error; SNMP++:SNMP request time outThe SNMP configuration on the network device is correct and using SNMP and SSH method for discovering the devices. Any help to t-shoot this issue.  

I’m loading a new pair of servers I wondering if I should move the MongoDB to the a different drive then where the OS is running, I have 127 SDA  and 250 SDB I think with the requirements in the for mongodb I would best install it on SDB drive or should I just delete the SDB and expand SDA?

Is there any way to apply more than one dataview within a single Qapp?  I have created a Qapp that has two data tables, however even though you can create what looks like two dataviews, the definition of those only references Table 1 and I have not found a way to change the reference.

Do you have any device health check qapps? If not, how about this idea: check device hardware with various commands, e.g. Cisco's show module, show environmentshow moduleMod Ports Card Type                              Model              Serial No.--- ----- -------------------------------------- ------------------ -----------  4   48  48-port 10/100/1000 RJ45 EtherModule   WS-X6148A-GE-TX    x  5    5  Supervisor Engine 2T 10GE w/ CTS (Acti VS-SUP2T-10G       xMod MAC addresses                       Hw    Fw           Sw           Status--- ---------------------------------- ------ ------------ ------------ -------  4                                 f   4.2   8.4(1)       15.5(1)SY8   Ok  5                                 d   1.3   12.2(50r)SYS 15.5(1)SY8   MajFailMod  Sub-Module                  Model              Serial       Hw     Status ---- --------------------------- ------------------ ----------- ------- -------  5  Policy Feature Card 4       VS-F6K-PFC4        SAL16159W6L  1.

I have a runbook which has 2 Qapps and 1 Gapp, each of the Qapps generate Alerts based on the conditions and I can manually export the Alerts in csv format. Here, looking for a way to export the Alerts of Qapps/runbook using python or existing Netbrain APIs.

So when I run a show command on a device in my Domain within NetBrain it takes about 30 seconds to retrieve the live data from the device so some critical data about the device are not seen in the output or result. But when I ssh into the device itself and run the same show command, it takes about 120 seconds to complete, thus retrieves the total and accurate data needed. How do I extend the time for data retrieval through CLI on a specific device within my Domain in NetBrain, specifically taking into consideration the Front Server settings? Thanks!

Has anyone tackled this beast? I am trying to setup routing via Velocloud Edge devices. I am not able to use API or CLI due to the account’s setup.  I am getting output but before I dug too deep into working on this, I didn’t know if there was something available.  https://mibs.observium.org/mib/VELOCLOUD-EDGE-MIB/ .Mib: 1.3.6.1.4.1.45346.1.1.2.4.2.2.1.6  Has anyone here tried to create route maps via snmp? 

has anyone setup a parser to populate a table containing license information for cisco switches?

Greetings, I have many Qapps that each generate a CSV Export File. I need to combine, roll-up the CSV Export Files into a single CSV Export File. How can that be accomplished? Cheers

Is there an option with adding a device with a pre-built configuration without having to be online for discovery? It will be used for path maps usage, but the customer didn’t want netbrain to have access to a few boxes on the network. We are talking about a few sites compared to the several thousand assets we have been able to discover. We didn’t want to have the situation where a gap in path calculations can occur.I am also thinking this could be useful for test environments to see how traffic will transverse the network.  Thoughts? 

Hello,can API node (blue cloud) retake or incept variable or column or column attributer from previous nodes?Not cleat what "Paramaters” are used for. No docs found.My use case is to process group of devices with REST API calls but I need to distinguish last device in que is being processed so final API call at the end with consolidated values can be triggered. Thanks 

I have a path drawing from A-Z, how can I make it show active gre-tunnels as well on the same drawing only for Z device?I am also trying to recall how to add new node/ device on current path map and see connections from/to it? I have done that before but cannot recall it. Thanks

I have been dabbling with the Qapp Python scripting lately and i want to build a qapp wherein the user can have multiple end device ips as input and have their L2 connected switch and L3 Gateways automatically drawn on the map using one-ip-table information. However, looks like the gateways cannot be resolved by one ip table that’s why it is not being drawn. Then i noticed when the end device is drawn, i am able to see the L3 neighbor by extending the plus sign. Is there a Qapp API or a combination of them that can see the L3 neighbor? Or is there a better way to achieve this? Thank you! import PyDataModeloutput = GetOneIpTableItem($Input1.IP,"","","")output has no entry for gw.     

Looking to see if the community has built a Network Change Runbook Template for doing IOS Upgrades?

I am trying to integrate Netbrain with Okta, iDP intiated flow apparently fails however SP (netbrain) intiated flow works. has anyone faced this issue?

Hi NetBrain,is NB in any version affected by the log4j vulnerability? I know that ElasticSearch uses it but not in what version of the library.

I am looking for a means of centrally managing ACLs within NetBrain.  Has anyone tried to do this?  What modules are needed?

Hi,I’m using Netbrain 10.0a and the Rest API to get the One-IP table. API returns serverType and switchType by their ID but I want the full name. serverType string The type of the device that the IP belongs to. switchType string The type of the switch that the IP connects to.  I found old Netbrain documentations on the net about IDs and their name. For example: 2004 = Cisco Nexus SwitchBut I can’t find the information for these IDs :1005100930080Can someone help me? Thank you. 

We have a scenario where we are trying to search for a Cisco VoIP device using the standard search box on the dashboard. We have the switches added to Netbrain but the VoIP phones are not. The the sake of this example the devices hostname is SEP010203ABCDEF and it’s MAC address is 01:02:03:AB:CD:EF. The Hostname for a Cisco VoIP phone is usually SEP followed by the MAC address without any punctuation. The NDP table on the switch has the information to show that the device is a neighbour so in some capacity Netbrain could be aware of the name.. Searching for SEP010203ABCDEF reveals no results. Searching for 010203ABCDEF reveals no results Searching for 0102.03AB.CDEF returns a direct match in the ARP cache of the switch Searching for 01:02:03:AB:CD:EF returns a match for the MAC in the cisco format above in the ARP cache of the switch The ideal here is to search for the hostname in the easiest and quickest way possible. While modifying the name each time can be done to produce a correct
