Info

If we have custom net types, nodes node types or custom role types in any poller, we also add this these types into our nmis configuration file (nmis9/conf/Config.nmis) in the masterprimary

"roletype_list" => "default,core,distribution,access",
"nettype_list" => "default,wan,lan,vpn,man,san,voice",
"nodetype_list" => "default,generic,switch,router,firewall,server",


Nodes API API

We can also manage nodes using the API.

System Admin API options

Configuration API

Update configuration items using the API.

Note: User should be authenticated. 

Update configuration item for the local server: 

POST http://volla.opmantek.net:6042/

{"username": "username",
"password": "password"}

We should receive a 200 response and a cookie, that we can reuse for next API calls. 

API For remote Nodes 

If we want to create or update a node in a remove cluster, we should indicate the remote cluster id in configuration.pollers: Cluster_id. 

E.x.

Remote Nodes 

If any operation has a remote cluster id, the API will try to edit in the remote server. If this operation is not possible, it will fail. 

In order to succeed: 

  • opHA needs to be pulling that peer. This is because the peer sends the API url to update the remote in the registry data. And this information should be updated at least once a day. 
  • The peer has to be online. 

If we should edit the remote node locally for some reason, we should use opnode_admin cli tool.
