15 Known Issues • M8428K does not display the correct model number, performance indicators and serial number in the details panel. (17447) • A limited amount of interface data is collected from Powerconnect B-Series Ethernet capable switches. As a result, interface reports and the Interfaces portlet do not contain Ethernet Link data for these devices. This also means Ethernet Links do not appear for these devices.(18800, 18802) • Right-click menu in Performance - Top Ping Response portlet does not appear. Workaround: Right-click in the Managed Resources portlet. (18827) • Network Details VLAN screen for B-RX devices does not display VLAN information since required MIBs are not supported or populated by the device. (16419) • Informs are not supported on these devices. If you check the checkbox to send informs to v3 trap recipients it will send informs rather that v3 traps. Workaround: Don't check the checkbox. (18435) • MLXe does not support ethernet link discovery. (PV-14912) • Deploying firmware to these devices requires an external file server. (12512) • Even though restoring a file is successful, a 4xS device does not send an indication the internal file server can interpret as a successful conclusion to the restore action. In this case, the timeout emitted by the file server can be benign. (12584) • RX devices cannot discover links between the two RX devices or between an RX and a Dell device. This occurs because the device does not populate the LLDP-MIB LocPortTable with unique port IDs. Therefore, link discovery cannot accurately get the port used for a link and hence the end point is the top level device itself. When a device has multiple links, only one of the links can be discovered.The rest are discarded by OMNM as duplicates because the Local Port ID is supposed to be unique. (12464, 12409) • OMNM will not telnet connect to some devices if they use the factory default password. You must set the password to something other than that default. OMNM does not recognize the additional prompt asking that default password be changed each time log in occurs. (12240) Traffic Flow Analysis OMNM's Traffic Flow Analyzer listens on UDP ports for NetFlow, or JFlow datagrams. A flow is a unidirectional stream of packets between two network nodes.

Traffic Flow Analysis
OMNM’s Traffic Flow Analyzer listens on UDP ports for NetFlow, or JFlow data-
grams. A flow is a unidirectional stream of packets between two network nodes.
The following key parameters appear in flows:
• Source IP address
• Destination IP address
• Source port number
• Destination port number
• Layer 3 protocol type
