SNMP breaking Graphs - Solarwinds -

RouterOS General

Hi.

If I run Solarwinds netflow and send Data from my Mikrotik it works.
But the Mikrotik changes its “ifIndex” constantly.
Please see the reply from Solarwinds support:

The issue from what we can see is not with Orion and is based on the configuration on your device as it appears the ifIndex is changing constantly meaning we cannot match the flow data to a monitored interface in Orion. As an example, on Cisco devices the following command ensures that these values do not change :
snmp-server ifindex persist

You will need to consult the vendor and ensure this is possible with your equipment also.

Is this possable ?
I have no clue how to change, and cannot find anything under SNMP settings

what interface you are trying to monitor?

It is our main router to the Internet, and I just want mikrotik to send netflow on our internet interface.

I have set the netflow on the specific interface.

Is there anything else I can check ?

Thanks

are there dynamic interfaces. usually interface indices does not change. For example, some ppptp interface reconnecting, only then nam would be the same, but ifindex different.

5

There is only 1 dynamic interface, eoip Tunnel.

But i dont care about monitoring it via SNMP or netflow.

It looks lyke solarwinds software receive the data fom interfaces numbered high.

Like interface 131, and then the logs state interface changes to 122 ect…
