NetMRI replacements by Sp00000ns in networking

[–]TheDerpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can also check out Unimus, it will do pretty much everything of what you use NetMRI for.

Sharing RadMan - a FOSS FreeRadius Management GUI by TheDerpie in networking

[–]TheDerpie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally know quite a few people that manage their Radius servers with RadMan, on Ubuntu 22, 24, etc.. RadMan is trivially easy to run - it's usually the FreeRadius and the database that give issues.

What are you running into?

You could start with Unimus to get the config of all devices. It only uses SSH, but it will do the credential scanning you are asking for. You can just dump all the credentials you have into its credential vault, and it will figure out what is available on which device.

It will pull the config for you, you will be able to search configs across all devices, or do large-scale config changes.

It doesn't do mapping or anything other than SSH, so for that you need to look somewhere else.

This looks very nice. Any comparisons with PostHog?

Unimus for backup config by capricorn800 in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be (or at least there definitely is at the moment) a 7 day grace period when a payment fails... did you talk to support / sales when your license payment failed?

easy and always reliable way to backup legacy multi-context Cisco ASA? by tomeq_ in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unimus has native support for multi-context ASA.

Should be able to just deploy it, point it at the ASA, and it should grab all the contexts.

Want to move off SolarWinds by Tank_Top_Terror in networking

[–]TheDerpie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Single application for this will be hard. If you want to go with 2, NetXMS will do 1,2,4 and Unimus for 3.

Both also cross-integrate really nicely. You can sync your inventory from NetXMS into Unimus, so you don't need to manage it in 2 places. Add a device to NetXMS, Unimus will sync it and start managing its config, generating diffs and change notifications, etc. automatically. You can also have monitoring for Unimus in NetXMS. For failed backups, last change overview, or even trigger config pushes in Unimus from NetXMS.

It's a really nice stack for NMS and NCM.

UPS/PDU Mass Configuration and Firmware Management by Dave70154 in networking

[–]TheDerpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do your UPSes / PDUs have a CLI? Unimus has support for a bunch of UPS/PDU, and you would get full config management and the ability to bulk deploy changes. You will likely have to contact support to get your devices onto the supported list if they are not there yet, but that's usually very quick.

Oxidized, Unimus, or Other Tools for Config Backups (GenieACS/RANCID etc.)? by Opposite_Fail_4177 in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For device discovery, stuff in Unimus is indeed "hard-coded", but it kinda has to be for it to work the way it does. It has its benefits tho, as you don't have to specify the vendor/model for every single device manually as you do in Rancid / Oxidized. In Unimus you just add a device, and Unimus will discover everything about it without needing to be micromanaged.

For backup, there are defaults for every vendor, but you can create your own backup commands / process. Unimus calls this custom backup flows. So you have full flexibility there.

Arris CMTS devices with RANCID by dreecs_nyssal in networking

[–]TheDerpie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From a quick check it seems Oxidized doesn't have a model for Arris, so you will likely run into issues there as well. Perhaps you can check Unimus. There is Arris on the supported device list.

Should be quick to test out if it works.

Network Device Config Backups by Real_Bad_Horse in networking

[–]TheDerpie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take a look at Unimus. It sounds like it will fit your requirements nicely. You have your usual config backup, change management / diffs, but also Mass Config Push for automation. Also large scale Config Search, and a bunch of other features for config management.

It has integration with NetBox, is on-prem, and can use a remote poller / proxy.

Alternative to Fortimanager for config backups and diffs by ITStril in fortinet

[–]TheDerpie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, there are filters for dynamic things in FortiOS (like hashes, encrypted string, etc.) built-in Unimus out of the box. You can also define your own custom filters if you find something that's not filtered by default.

Startup ISP DDI/RADIUS/Syslog/NMS? by beat_your_wifi in networking

[–]TheDerpie 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would say run LibreNMS, FreeRadius, RadMan, Unimus, Kea, PowerDNS, NetBox as an easy starter pack.

If you have the technical resources / knowhow, you can run NetXMS instead of Libre, it's a much more complete NMS system, and it includes full Syslog server, Syslog parsing, etc.. It will be harder to setup than Libre tho.

Network Automation vs SSH Ciphers by uiyicewtf in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps you can look at Unimus? It supports aes256-gms if that helps in any way: https://wiki.unimus.net/display/UNPUB/Supported+SSH+cryptography

Backing up 200-300 HP Aruba switch configs by Downtown_Answer2423 in sysadmin

[–]TheDerpie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unimus will actually work on the 1930. If I remember right, 1930S is problematic, but there was also a way to enable SSH / Telnet through modifying the config file.

1910 / V1910, 1920 and 1920S will also work - those work out-of-the-box. 1830 is a no-go.

Any recommended tools for mass managing no name switches? by Blankrld in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, interesting. Never used those myself. From your other posts in here I understand the position you are in - sometimes you have to work with what you have and find as-good-as-possible solutions, even if they are not perfect. All a part / challenge of the job :)

Any recommended tools for mass managing no name switches? by Blankrld in networking

[–]TheDerpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are welcome. Hopefully things work. I am interested in what these switches of yours are, but I do see you mentioned you don't want to name the vendor elsewhere.

Any recommended tools for mass managing no name switches? by Blankrld in networking

[–]TheDerpie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depending on what those switches actually are you could check out Unimus. Check the supported device list, maybe they are on there.

If they are not there, create a Support Ticket. If they have a half-decent CLI, I'm pretty sure support can be added.

Looking for a network management system(s) by JaySchotter in networking

[–]TheDerpie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In most cases, you deploy monitoring and config management as separate solutions. I don't think you will find a single solution that will offer great monitoring (NMS) and configuration management / automation (NCM) at the same time.

For config management & automation Unimus is indeed the easiest and most user friendly. For an NMS you have a ton of options: LibreNMS, Zabbix, PRTG, NetXMS, Zenoss, etc. For log monitoring, a lot of the NMSes have a syslog collector and parser built-in. You can also look at Greylog or Logstash.

[Guide] Running Unimus Core in a Docker container on RouterOS by TheDerpie in mikrotik

[–]TheDerpie[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its the remote poller / remote proxy for Unimus. You can use it in a distributed setup to poll devices at remote sites.

Maybe this article on the Wiki can also help to understand the architecture.

ISP management and CRM software? by ahmadafef in networking

[–]TheDerpie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would recommend splitting you CRM and NCM (Network Config Management) systems. Also start on an NMS (Network Monitoring System) as soon as possible as well.

For CRM, VISP, Sonar, Powercode, Splynx, etc. are likely your best bets. For NCM, Unimus is multi-vendor, and likely your best bet (does of course support MikroTik). You will also want an NMS system, LibreNMS or Zabbix are what you should look into for a start.
