Discovery / Re: Last configuration change

« on: June 20, 2022, 02:48:05 pm »

Hello,
These information are written by the Cisco device itself in its configuration file.
This is not NeDi that generates it.

Database / Missing nedi.vendorinfo table following 2.1 upgrade

« on: February 17, 2022, 06:48:49 pm »

Hello,
Following a fresh upgrade of NeDi to 2.1c and associated database update, I have an issue with asset list that stopped working.
It shows the following message:
"Table 'nedi.vendorinfo' doesn't exist"

I checked in mysql and the table does not exist.
Is there a way to initialise it or something is missing?

Thanks
Gael

News / Re: NeDi 2.0C released

« on: April 08, 2021, 11:42:58 am »

Thanks Remo for this new release.   

I just performed upgrade from 1.9 and this has broken all the icons from devices.

Now, only greyed icon are available in DEF icon picker and very strange thing, when selecting one of the grey icon in the DEF, the Cisco devices icons appear in green!
On top of that, all the servers icons (Windows or ESXi) have disappeared.

Did I made something wrong or missed during the upgrade?

« on: June 22, 2020, 12:24:25 pm »

Hello,
It is mentioned in the NeDi Guide that it is possible to upload the Cisco EoL date and information (ciscoeol.tgz) in NeDi.

Do you know how to use it and what is the format?

Thanks

Installation / Re: Issue updating from 1.7 to 1.8

« on: June 08, 2020, 04:41:16 pm »

Hi, if this can help (I faced the same kind of issue as I forgot to run the updatedb stuff after upgrading...) here is a small procedure I tested on production environments to update the DB schema and structure to your current NeDi files and scripts version.

1/ Identify the current version of NeDi DB
Go to System/Database, find the System table and click on Show icon (eye icon) and take a note of the current NeDi DB structure version.

All the trick is done by replacing your current /nedi/inc/libdb.pm with an older version so that this older version will do the required database upgrade for you without touching the other NeDi files.

I have attached to the post the original libdb.pm files for NeDi version 1.7 and 1.8.
If you prefer to extract them on your own, you have to download the NeDi install files for both 1.7C and 1.8C from www.nedi.ch, extract them and get the libdb.pm in the /inc directory.

2/ Please make a backup of your current libdb.pm file:
# cp -p libdb.pm libdb.pm.bak

3/ Stop all NeDi active background processes.

4/ If your current version of NeDi (files and scripts) is 1.8:
If the version shown in the NeDi DB is 1.6xx or 1.7
--> copy libdb.pm.1.7 to /nedi/inc/
Replace the current libdb.pm with the libdb.pm.1.7 file:
# cp libdb.pm.1.7 libdb.pm

Go to the NeDi web interface in System/NeDi and select "reset" after making sure that the login field contains "updatedb" and then execute.
The DB should update correctly to the 1.7.100 version

Then, copy libdb.pm.1.8 to /nedi/inc/
Replace the current libdb.pm with the libdb.pm.1.8 file:
# cp libdb.pm.1.8 libdb.pm

Go to the NeDi web interface in System/NeDi and select "reset" after making sure that the login field contains "updatedb" and then execute.
The DB should update correctly to the 1.8.100 version.

Do not forget at the end to recover your original libdb.pm file:
# cp libdb.pm.bak libdb.pm

Hope this will help you and will avoid you to go through all files upgrade process that is very impacting if you made any customisation to your def files...

Discovery / Nodes names not resolved - how to debug?

« on: January 28, 2020, 11:17:41 am »

Hello,
I have an issue to do reverse lookup on discovered nodes IP.
It seems that NeDi is not performing any reverse lookup when new node are discovered.

Using DIG on server CLI, I am able to reverse lookup manually the IP of the discovered nodes so I suspect the issue is within NeDi.

How can I debug it and is there any basic stuff I would have forgotten to activate in NeDi to have these node IP reverse lookups?

Thanks!

Discovery / Net::Nslookup not available

« on: January 28, 2020, 11:10:32 am »

Hello,
I have been using NeDi for along time and recently noticed that every time I kick off NeDi.pl, the first line says that Net::Nslookup is not available when I run the script as NeDi user.

DNS :Net::Nslookup not available
CLI :IO-Pty loaded
WEB :LWP-UserAgent loaded
...

when I run it as root, the module looks to be available to NeDi script:
DNS :Net::Nslookup loaded
CLI :IO-Pty loaded
WEB :LWP-UserAgent loaded


The Net::Nslookup module is correctly installed on the server and I tested it with a basic script.
Is there any way to fix it or to debug?

Thanks
Gaël

Installation / Re: Update MAC Vendor OUI Database?

« on: January 03, 2020, 12:53:56 pm »

Hello,
How to make this OUI update to work with NeDi 1.7?
It seems that the -N option refers to IP or names in 1.7.

[nedi]$ perl /var/nedi/nedi.pl -v -N oui
CLI :IO-Pty loaded
Invalid IP: oui.1.1.1 at /var/nedi/nedi.pl line 192.

Got it, just found that -SW will prevent NeDi from connecting using HTTP/S to the phones.
