Version 0.9.4-20241210 of nvdct is online now. What has changed?
- the default for the layer selection has ben removed
use the CLI option-l CDPor the config option
[SETTINGS]
layers = ["CDP"]
instead.
-
the site filter works now also with the RESTAPI backend
-
added option
--include-l3-hosts
this allows you to add single homed devices to the L3v4 topology
dual homed Linux and Windows hosts will added by default with the updated plugins.This change nedds an update of the ip address inventory plugin(s)
- Linux inv_lnx_if_ip-0.0.4-20241210.mkp
- SNMP inv_ip_address-0.0.6-20241210.mkp
- Windows inv_win_if_ip-0.0.3-20241210.mkp
The inventory plugins add IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to the inventory now.
Note: after the update you need to do a rediscovery of the host labels (
cmk -IL && cmk -R) to use it with the L3v4 topology. -
reworked STATIC topology
With this rework you can now easyly create (any) topology you want.
For this the configuration has changed from
[“left_host”, “left_interface”, “right_interface”, “right_host”, “label”]
to
[“left_host”, “left_service”, “right_service”, “right_host”]Note: you can leave
"left_service"and/or"right_service"empty ("")Here a little sample to just connect 3 hosts
STATIC_CONNECTIONS = [
["sw01", "", "", "sw02"],
["ro02", "", "", "sw01"],
["ro02", "", "", "sw02"],
]
and with services
STATIC_CONNECTIONS = [
["sw01", "Interface GigabitEthernet0/2", "Interface GigabitEthernet0/2", "sw02"],
["ro02", "Interface FastEthernet0/0", "Interface GigabitEthernet0/1", "sw01"],
["ro02", "Interface FastEthernet0/1", "Interface GigabitEthernet0/1", "sw02"],
]
As always, before updating read the CHANGELOG
Cheers
