Available Interfaces: Router Information

The Available Interfaces page includes the following options and information for routers.

Test

Attempts to poll the interfaces for the router by using the settings that are displayed. You can use this option in troubleshooting to test SNMP connectivity. If the SNMP Profile value is missing, the test always fails.

• Success: If the test succeeds, click Refresh.
• Failure: If the test fails, you can click the Discover option to try to find an SNMP profile that works. Alternatively, you can assign a different SNMP profile on the Active Interfaces page and click Test again.

Discover

Looks for an SNMP profile to use for polling the router's interfaces. You can use the Discover option if the SNMP Profile value is missing and you do not know which profile to use.

• Success: If discovery succeeds click Refresh, then click Test. If the profile is different from the current one, the SNMP Profile value is updated.
• Failure: Any SNMP Profile value that was displayed before discovery is removed. Discovery can fail for several reasons. For example, a valid SNMP profile may not be available, access to the profile may be blocked, or the router may be offline.

Refresh

Sends updated polling and interface information to the poller. Click the Refresh option after a successful Discover or Test operation.

Enable and Disable

Control whether the interface (or router and its interfaces) is allowed to send flow to CA Network Flow Analysis, as described in Enable or Disable Interfaces.

Delete

Removes the router and its interfaces from the system, as described in Delete Routers from the System.

Router Columns

Last Poll

Status indicator to show whether the most recent regular polling attempt was successful:

• Red: The polling attempt failed.
• Yellow: The router has never been discovered.
• Green: The polling attempt succeeded.

Router Address

IP address of the router.

Router Name

Name of the router.

SNMP Profile

Name of the SNMP profile that was used in the most recent successful polling attempt. If this profile is not successful in the next polling attempt, the poller uses the next available profile until polling succeeds. In this case, the SNMP Profile value is updated. If polling fails for all of the profiles, the SNMP Profile value is blank and the Last Poll status indicator is red.

Total Interfaces

Number of interfaces for the router.

Enabled Interfaces

Number of enabled interfaces for the router.

Harvester

IP address of the parent Harvester for the router.
