MAC addresses not populating #123

Closed ntwrk80 closed 1 year ago

ntwrk80 commented 3 years ago

I'm trying to setup switchmap-ng and am getting most of the information, but the mac addresses and IP addresses aren't populating to the switch pages. Classic switchmap is working fine for the same subset of switches. Is there a configuration directive I'm missing to add "routers" like the old package? I'm running it against a Catalyst 4500 and two 3850 stacks.

Ok further investigation shows that the poller is exiting without any errors after systemd starts it. Is there a way to run it manually with debugging?

palisadoes commented 3 years ago

The log files should have further information. Sometimes there is a lock file that exists that prevents polling occurring that needs to be deleted. Please post what you see.

All I get is the following:

At this point systemd thinks it's active but exited...

The poller continuously runs as a system daemon. It interrogates the configured devices on a regular basis. What you see there should be expected.

Do you see the devices on the web page? There is a separate daemon for that.

ntwrk80 commented 3 years ago

At that point though there are no switchmap-ng-poller processes left to spawn the next poll. Also it doesn't actually create all of the hosts in the config file. Only three show up in the API.

Trying to revive this repo... If you still need this researched, please say so here, otherwise please close the issue.

ntwrk80 commented 1 year ago

I no longer have access to the original server this was on. I look forward to seeing a restart of this repo and progress as switchmap is one of my favorite tools.

dcthor commented 1 year ago

ok to close this issue (for now)?

ntwrk80 commented 1 year ago

Yes
