Hi List, I like jffnms enough to use it on an IPv6-only network.
Is there an architecture document or something that I can read through in order to figure out what to change to get at least "first-level" support i.e. The User can register IPv6 hosts, Services and Interfaces Manually, SNMP and other probes get the correct formatted adresses/hostname? Or have anyone looked at is already? I realise that getting the autodiscovery to work with IPv6 will be harder because none of the underlying tools really support IPv6, but as a First Step getting SNMP queries to work would be a solution to a problem I have right now. It looks like the code does not bother unduly with the content of an IP adress and just pass it on to the underlying net-snmp tools, like it should be done IMO. The problem is that one has to specify a Transport protocol to get net-snmp to use IPv6 packages - if this extra parameter is indiscriminately passed as part of the adress field, "everyone else" but net-snmp will not like the address/hostname. Sigh! Basically, there is a need for a separate Transport Field associated with each IP address (the nasty alternative is to parse it out all other places than net-snmp, but that is stupid. Maybe fine for a demo). Anyway, Is this very hard, or just work? mvh, Frithiof Jensen B.Sc. E.E.
