Nedi works good only with Cisco?

[Taner_Rasim]

Hello all,

Could you confirm that the Nedi works well only with Cisco?
I love Nedi in Cisco infrastructures.

But at home, I am with Mikrotik devices and Nedi is not useful.
I tried to discover by SNMP two Mikrotik devices.
One of them is with the standard configuration of the Lan bridge interface where are bridged 3x physical interfaces and 1x wan interface.
And another device with a custom configuration for software VLAN switching in Router OS.
But the results are bad.

Only with Cisco Nedi is perfect.

Cisco is well supported as it's most commonly found. However We're working on many other vendors these days. As a matter of fact, I've just fixed a Mikrotik issue, where nodes were not properly assigned to ports...

Hi rickli.

Could you share how you fixed the issues with Mikrotik devices?

I use Nedi at home in Raspberry Pi3 with Debian OS (Raspbian).
The Nedi version is 1.9 manually installed.
The Nedi is near to my Zabbix and Grafana.

I will be happy to know that with Mikrotik devices Nedi works well.
In my home micro infrastructure, I use Mikrotik Hap AC2 and Mikrotik Hap Lite devices.
I implemented the VLAN logic with software switching and VLAN segmentation.

Thank you in advance.

Still working on Mikrotik. Will have support next year...

Super, thank you for your answers.
I really applicate it.
I will be happy to try it when Nedi is ready for Mikrotik.
Because I am an IT enthusiast.


What could say about Juniper SRX and QFX do you plan to support them and what is the situation with Juniper network devices with Nedi, in previously my job I was worked with Juniper network equipment but I didn't have time to try Nedi then.
For example, will you implement in Nedi LLDP like CDP?
Then Juniper Mikrotik and Cisco could talk to each other with LLDP it will be very cool.


I have one last question for you, do you have a detailed guide on how to do a backup of startup-config of Cisco WLC controller 5520 with the latest version of Nedi?



Thank you in advance.

Juniper is supported as well. I keep working on improving every vendor, but as there are so many possible constellations it takes its time.

Backing up WLCs is as simple as adding user/pw in System-Setup and nedi.pl -ba WLC-IP
