Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

When the SNMP community string is changed on a device, SolarWinds recommends:

Edit the node properties and save the changes.

Update the community string in node properties to match the new value on the device.

"To restore polling, edit the node in SolarWinds, update the SNMP community string in the properties, and save the changes. This ensures that SolarWinds can authenticate and resume polling. Deleting and re-adding the node is not necessary, nor is restarting the SNMP service on the device in most cases."

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

A. Communication issue exists in new device: If there is an SNMP or network issue, the poller cannot retrieve data.

D. Object IDs (OIDs) are not supported: The new device may not support the same OIDs as the test device, resulting in no data returned.

SolarWinds documentation notes:

"When extending a poller to other devices, ensure network/SNMP communication is successful and that the target devices support the required OIDs. Differences in support or access may cause data collection to fail on some nodes."

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

NetFlow defines a flow as a unidirectional sequence of packets sharing common values in seven key fields. The three essential data points from your list used to determine if packets are part of the same flow are IP address (source and destination), Layer 3 protocol (such as TCP or UDP), and port number (source and destination). The interface name is not used to identify a unique flow.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

The most common cause of mismatch between bandwidth (SNMP) numbers and flow (NetFlow, sFlow, etc.) numbers is that not all network traffic is included in the flow export. SNMP bandwidth counters include all traffic traversing the interface, but NetFlow or other flow records may only represent sampled or filtered subsets, or may miss certain traffic due to export or device configuration limitations. This is a well-documented and expected difference in the SolarWinds platform.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

You can check the status of the flow collector service from the NetFlow collector services section and from NetFlow settings in the SolarWinds web console. These locations provide service health, up/down status, and logs. "Flow and CBQoS sources" and "Top XX receivers" do not display service health.
