NAC Profiler DNS Name Queries

Hi Guys,
I'm having an issue with NAC Profiler 3.1.1_18 when trying to profile servers using DNS Name.
I have one collector configured to  do DNS Collection with Zone transfer enabled.
If I do a search with string *.server.*, the system returns me just servers with the word "server" in dns name. This is working fine.
But when a create a profile (named Servers) and add a rule to match dns server names with the string *.server.*, profiler will put in the Servers' profile all devices that has any data on DNS Name field. no matter if it has the word "server" in the name or not.
Any idea about what I'm forgetting?
NetInquiry Configuration
Module Status:
Running
Maximum allowed workers:
  (default = 5)
Enable DNS Collection:
Zone Transfer:
Domain Name:
Network blocks (one per line):
10.0.0.0/8

Hi Luciano,
You may wanna test quickly by using the following string in the DNS Name field: /server/i

Fede

  • What are the endpoints attributes collected by NAC Profiler through SNMP and DHCP?

    Hi Everyone,
    Please help on this.
    I want to know what are the endpoints attributes collected by NAC Profiler to discover and profile the endpoints.through SNMP protocol and DHCP protocol.
    Also if anybody can explain a simple used case on this.
    Please guide me on this.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks,
    Abuzar.

    Hi,
    SNMP
    =====
    NetMap queries network devices via SNMP for:
    System information
    Interface information
    Bridge information
    802.1X information (PAE MIB)
    Routing/IP information
    CDP MIB Information
    This information is used to Build and maintain a model of the network topology and endpoint discovery.
    NetMap uses SNMP Get, GetNext and GetBulk (when available) requests to  query the SNMP agents running on the network infrastructure devices to  gather specific Management Information Base (MIB) objects about their  status based on device type (Layer 2 or Layer 3).
    In addition to polling each network device for all MIB data at a regular  interval, NetMap may also be commanded to poll port-specific  information when the NAC Profiler system is notified that an endpoint  has joined or left the network via SNMP traps sent by devices at the  network edge, switches typically.
    Upon receipt and verification of a link state (link up, link down) or  MAC notification trap, NetTrap will notify the NAC Profiler Server that a  change has occurred on the network edge (endpoint joined or left a  network port). If the trapping device is in the NAC Profiler  configuration, the NetMap component module assigned to poll the device  that sent the trap will be commanded by the Server module to initiate a  poll of the device's port information to determine the change to the  endpoint topology that resulted in the trap being sent by the network  device.
    The information gathered by NetMap is processed by the Server  accordingly to update the network topology, noting the endpoint joining  or leaving a port. Note that NetMap SNMP polling of network devices  resulting from a trap is localized to the port specified in the trap.  This is unlike the regular polling that occurs at the frequency  specified for each device type (L2 and L3) which gathers all SNMP  information from the device used by the NAC Profiler system.
    DHCP:
    =====
    The NetWatch module listens for traffic including DHCP traffic.
    The module will collect all the DHCP information on the traffic collected, like mac address, ip address,  DHCP Vendor Class Identifier in DHCP request, host name in DHCP request, requested specified options in DHCP request (option 55) and full list of DHCP options supported by the DHCP client as specified in the DHCP request.
    All the endpointe data can then be used to map endpoints with profiles.

  • NAC Profiler database utility for upgrade

    I am trying to upgrade NAC Profiler Lite by following the following Cisco Doc
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/docs/security/nac/profiler/release_notes/310/310rn.html#wp102045
    In section Upgrading 2.1.8 Cisco NAC Profiler Server and Profiler Lite Standalone Systems to 3.1.0.
    I'm trying to run the database migration utility. Utility is showing in the home/beacon directory. When I run the command specified in the Doc to untar the utility package (tar xvfz DB-utility_218to31x.tgz) I receive the followinig errors:
    gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
    tar: Child returned status 1
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
    Any suggestions?

    The file name is DB-utility_219to31x.tgz and the MD5 on the download page is 335b7ca5215394ccc94c7b48ca242a3b.
    I'm not sure if it is changing during the download to my workstation or not. I had our IA Security guy look at it and he said there is no way for him to check the MD5 of the file on my workstation. Once I put it on the profiler, the MD5 is

    Hi,
    To recover the root password, you'll want to follow these steps:  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6128/products_password_recovery09186a008073cab6.shtml#later.
    Even though it is not specific to the profiler software, the appliance is the same so the recovery process is the same.
    If you've lost the admin password, you can reset the password using this procedure:  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/nac/profiler/configuration_guide/310/p_user_man31.html#wp1066696.

  • Change of ISP - need to deploy new IP address or DNS name to Active Sync phones

    Greetings! We are changing ISP's tomorrow and we JUST finished deploying a bunch of new Galaxy S4's. Before, we were using Blackberrys and the thought never occurred to set up a DNS name for ActiveSync, we were just using the straight IP address. So
    it just hit me that, when we switch over tomorrow evening, all the ActiveSync devices will cease to connect. NOT a good thing! Is there a way to push out a DNS name (to replace the IP address), to all the Active Sync clients via a policy update, script or
    other mechanism? Otherwise we will have to contact each user and get them to manually update their accounts by entering the new DNS name. If anyone knows a method by which we can do this, please advise and thanks in advance!
    Mike
    Mike Vain

    Hello,
    I agree with Ed's suggestion. After you change ISP, please change your DNS entries to the new IP address.
    You can also change DNS A record for autodiscover to the new IP address.
    The activesync will use autodiscover service to update profile.

  • Error: Missing SRV record at DNS server - [Error details: 9003 (Type: Win32 - Description: DNS name does not exist.)]

    in an attempt to transfer FSMO roles to the 2012r2 DC the first thing I ran was dcdiag /e /c /v and after correcting some minor errors, I came upon this one in the DNS portion where a SRV record is missing and I have no idea how to fix/remove this. there's
    only two DCs, 200.5 and 200.6 where the former is a Hyper-V VM running 2012r2 and the latter is a physical 2003r2 machine. I was able to successfully raise the levels to 2003 and join the 2012r2 DC. this missing SRV record does not look fatal and only warrants
    a warning from dcdiag, however I would like to fix this so there's no trouble down the road. I've tried ipconfig /registerdns, but no dice. here is the message I'm concerned about:

                  Warning: Record Registrations not found in some network adapters

    Hi Ace Fekay, thank you for your help. I hope you're still with me despite my lack of responding. I needed time to move the VPN server from the DC to a separate VM and then following your instructions to disable WINS Proxy and IP routing. Some of the delay
    was when I had to restart the 2003r2 server after disabling those two items since that cause DNS queries to the Internet to go unresolved with only the 2012r2 server. That's been corrected, but running dcdiag /c /e /v still gives some DNS problems. Here's

  • Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 domain join displays error "Changing the Primary Domain DNS name of this computer to "" failed...."

    Hi,
    Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 domain join displays error "Changing the Primary Domain DNS name of this computer to "" failed...."
    DC:windows Server 2008 R2
    Domain functional level:Windows Server 2003
    When Winxp join domain, have no this error message.
    I checked http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2018583?wa=wsignin1.0 does't work.
    There have 3 suggestion in this article:
    1.The "Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP" checkbox has been disabled in the IPv4 properties of the computer being joined.
    Doesnt's work.
    2.Connectivity over UDP port 137 is blocked between client and the helper DC servicing the join operation in the target domain.
    On my DC, I run netstat -an, reslut as below:
     UDP    192.168.20.3:137       *:*
    3.The TCP/IPv4 protocol has been disabled so that the client being joined or the DC in the destination domain targeted by the LDAP BIND is running TCP/IPv6 only.
    We are not using IPV6.
    This server recently updated from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 R2. Before upgrade, when Win7 and Win2008 join this domain, also have the same error message.
    Please help to check this issue.
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Guo Ying,
    I have faced this critical error which makes over-writes the host names in the domain when you join.
    For example: Already you had a host name called as PC.domain.com in the domain.com Domain.
    When you try to add the another host name called as PC in the domain.com Domain, it doesn't give you the duplicate name error on the network it does over-write the existing host name called as PC.domain.com & it will add the new host name into the domain.
    Host name which got over-written will get removed from the domain. I faced this issue in my project. My DPM host name got removed from the Domain & new host name got joined into the domain which halted my backups for one day.
    Final Resolution is as follows:
    You need to start the dns console on the DC & drop down the domain name.
    Select the _msdcs when you click on _msdcs it will show the Name Server's list on the right hand side.
    You need to add the Domain Naming Master under the _msdcs or add all the domain controllers which you had.
    After you add the Name server's try joining the PC OR Laptop to the domain which is successfully joins it.

  • Rdp://full%20address=s: IP or DNS Name is not user friendly... Can rdp:// IP or DNS Name be assumed as the full address in Microsoft Remote Desktop?

    We would like to request Microsoft Remote Desktop (MRD) to behave the same as the open source CoRD.app on OS X with respect URL resolution.
    Example:MRD will resolve from Terminal rdp://full%20address=s:<IP or DNS Name>, but not rdp://<IP or DNS Name>
    As the OS will respect any of the following protocols in Terminal or browser:
    afp://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    cifs://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    ftp://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    ftps://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    http://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    https://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    smb://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    ssh://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    vnc://<username>@<IP or DNS Name>
    (<username> can be omitted to force authentication at connection)  it seems slightly redundant to force "full%20address=s:" in the URL.
    Can Version 8.0.1.6 be modified address this request?
    What is the proper way to report an enhancement request or bug?
    Thank you for your consideration.

    Hi,
    From your description it appears that you want to modify the pattern for assigning the rdp full address but this doesn’t support as per your requirement. That is the default string which we need to have for passing full address. 
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • DNS Name in OD Password Server field?

    So, I got a new juniper firewall the other day to reduce the amount of work my main server has. Fire it up, configure it, and I notice that password server requests are going out the NAT, then back into the public IP of the server.
    My question is this: would it be wise and/or acceptable to change the IP address to a URL in OD (in WGM, Click on target, config in the popup, passwordserver in the list, value in question is PasswordServerLocation and dsAttrTypeNative:apple-password-server-location)?
    I would rather do this as the internal DNS points the proper name to the internal IP, while the external does the same for the public IP, so password server would work properly no matter where a user is.

    Well, sure. You use a Network as destination (vs. a HOST).

  • Domain name/"primary DNS" name/mail host name/mail server name/mx name

    Hi,
    I have registered my domain name (N.com) with an external dns server and created an MX record (mail.N.com) for it as well. My server sits behind a router and internet traffic is port(80)-forwarded to my server's fixed internal ip address (I can access my webpages from the internet just fine). When I initially setup the server I was asked to give it a "primary DNS name." I naturally assumed that N.com was supposed to be entered here, but that just caused all kinds of problems (though I still do not understand why). So I reinstalled and currently have server.N.com as the primary DNS name of the server (although it shows up in Server Admin and Workgroup Manager as server.local--why is that?)
    I have had no luck getting any email from the internet with the default settings in mail services (domain name of N.com and host name of server.N.com). Having no luck with the defaults, I assumed that maybe I needed to change the host name to "mail.N.com" so that it matched the MX record. I also changed the user preferences in Workgroup Manager to receive mail from mail.N.com--but still no luck. Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong and how come none of the Mail Service literature mentions anything about what a mail "host name" is supposed to be? Is it supposed to be the same as the "Mail Server" name that Workgroup Manager asks each user for? and is it the same as the MX record name?
    I am just needing some help to connect all these variously named, but undefined, dots.
    Also, how come I can access webmail from the internet using www.N.com/webmail but can't do it from any computers within my physical network (I have to use IPaddress/webmail or server.local/webmail)?
    Also, should my user email addresses be [email protected] or [email protected] (which is the current default)?
    Thanks in advance and good luck!
    John

    I had been told by a friend that ... regular email coming in from the internet would go through port 80
    Unfortunately you were misinformed.
    My MX record needs the extra subname (such as "mail") in front of the domain name, right?
    Not at all. A MX record for 'N.com' is entirely valid (expected, in fact).
    An MX record tells remote mail servers where to send mail for any domain/subdomain. If you think about it, let's say you worked for Apple and you wanted people to be able to send email to [email protected], well then you need an MX record for 'apple.com'.
    You can see if you dig MX apple.com that they actually have 9 MX records, but the point still stands.
    Now, you might also have MX records for subdomains so that you can have [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], etc. Each of these subdomains would need a separate MX record.
    So, in general, for any set of email addresses @[anything.]domain.com you have a MX record telling remote mail servers where to send that mail.
    Of course the MX record name is mail.N.com, but I think you are implying that the in the Mail settings of Server Admin where it asks for domain name all I need to put there is the N.com, right?
    What I mean is that you need to set the domain name to whatever domain name you expect to receive mail at.
    If you want users to have email addresses in the form of [email protected], then you enter 'N.com'.
    If you want users to have email addresses in the form of [email protected] then you enter 'mail.N.com'.
    If you want both forms, enter one in the main domain and add the other(s) in the Advanced -> Hosting -> Local Host Aliases section.
    Is there anything in the Mail settings that needs to have the full MX record name (mail.N.com)?
    Yes. Either the 'domain name' or the 'Local Host Aliases' needs to contain the same thing as your MX record. That's because the MX record tells remote servers to send mail to this machine, but the machine won't accept the mail unless it is configured to do so.
    What is the "host name" supposed to be?
    This should be the name that remote servers see when this machine tries to send outgoing mail.
    Ideally this should match the reverse DNS of your IP address, that way when it connects to a remote server it says "Hi, I'm $hostname" and the remote server can lookup the machine's IP address and see the same result. This will reduce the problem of remote servers thinking you're sending them spam.
    If you only have a single IP address then this probably needs to be something like 'N.com'. If you don't have control over your reverse DNS then you're going to run into a problem.
    Also in the user accounts (in Workgroup Manager) what should the "mail server name" be? Is it the host name or the domain name?
    Off hand, I don't know.
    Also, why are all the default user email addresses [email protected] (the name I gave the server at setup)? Why doesn't the user accounts create [email protected] as the default address?
    Presumably because the mail server says it is 'server.N.com' and therefore any accounts on that machine would be [email protected]. Changing the domain name (as above) should fix that.

  • Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: The handle is invalid.

    I'm stuck here trying to figure this error out.  
    2003 domain, 2012 hyper v core 3 nodes.  (I have two of these hyper V groups, hvclust2012 is the problem group, hvclust2008 is okay)
    In Failover Cluster Manager I see these errors, "Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason:  The handle is invalid."
    I restarted the host node that was listed in having the error then another node starts showing the errors.
    I tried to follow this site:  http://blog.subvertallmedia.com/2012/12/06/repairing-a-failover-cluster-in-windows-server-2012-live-migration-fails-dns-cluster-name-errors/
    Then this error shows up when doing the repair:  there was an error repairing the active directory object for 'Cluster Name'
    I looked at our domain controller and noticed I don't have access to local users and groups.  I can access our other hvclust2008 (both clusters are same version 2012).

    I came upon this thread:  http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/85fc2ad5-b0c0-41f0-900e-df1db8625445/windows-2012-cluster-resource-name-fails-dns-registration-evt-1196?forum=winserverClustering
    Now, I'm stuck on adding a managed service account (mas).  I'm not sure if I'm way off track to fix this.  Any advice?  Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Elton,
    I restarted 3 hosts after applying the hotfix.  Then I did the steps below and got stuck on step 5.  That is when I get the error (image above).  There
    was an error repairing the active directory object for 'Cluster Name'.  For more data, see 'Information Details'.
    To reset the password on the affected name resource, perform the following steps:
    From Failover Cluster Manager, locate the name resource.
    Right-click on the resource, and click Properties.
    On the Policies tab, select If resource fails, do not restart, and then click OK.
    Right-click on the resource, click More Actions, and then click Simulate Failure.
    When the name resource shows "Failed," right-click on the resource, click More Actions, and then click Repair.
    After the name resource is online, right-click on the resource, and then click Properties.
    On the Policies tab, select If resource fails, attempt restart on current node, and then click OK.

  • An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a domain controller in the domain being joined has failed.

    "An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a domain controller in the domain being joined has failed." 
    This is the error message I get whenever I try to connect to my servers domain which I just set up earlier today. I have read through a bunch of other threads on the same error message
    but each of them has had different solutions and none of them have helped me. 
    The one thing that I suspect is related to my problem is that I can't ping my domain on the W7 computer I'm trying to connect. I can ping the server, but not the domain. the domain
    i'm using is set up like "domain.local" . 
    Other things that might be relevant. 
    I'v already set up user accounts and a computer under the Server 2012 active domain administrator settings. 
    I'v port forwarded ports 80 and 443 on the server. 
    The server has a static IPv4 IP adress. I haven't done anything with IPv6 
    The W7 computer has a dynamic IP adress, but I don't think it changes. I believe my router is set up to keep it constant, not 100% sure though. 
    Thanks for any help with this, I'm pretty much out of ideas on this. 

    Hi ZachPrinz,
    Firstly, would you please let us know the outputs of ipconfig /all both of the clients and the DC.
    Also, if you run nslookup FQDN of your DC from your clients, what will you receive?
    Meanwhile, regarding the issue, we can refer to
    the similar thread and see how it works.

    Hope this helps.

  • EJB lookup in a cluster (DNS names to servers mapping)

              I am using weblogic6.0 to setup a object clusters. Currently I have 2 physical
              machine each running one object server.
              I have a servlet in the web tier (it is not part of the cluster) that lookups
              the EJB's.
              From the documentation, I understand intialContext lookup should use one DNS name
              that maps to both the object servers.
              My question is how can I setup that ?
              - I tried the following, I am not sure if this is right
              I created a virtualhost with
              name: MyVirtualHost
              virtual host names : MyCluster (this is name of the cluster I had setup )
              Targets : MyCluster
              I tried looking up with
              t3//MyVirtualHost:7001 and t3//MyCluster:7001
              No luck in both the cases !!!!!
              Note : I restarted my weblogic servers after
              creating the virtual host. But I did not reboot my machine ( don't know if this
              is required )
              Please help !!!!
              Thanks

              You need add an entry in Domain Name Server to include your host1 and host2, and
              use it in your JNDI lookup. Or you can do:
              t3://host1,host2:7001
              Both ways should work. Will load balancing to two JNDI trees.

  • DNS name lookup in clustering environment

              Hi,
              I have 2 managed servers hosted on different IP addresse in a cluster.
              I have configured Cluster address in weblogic console to these 2 IP addreses seperated
              by a comma.
              If I am doing lookup for a session bean from my application, which URL i should
              use in lookup?
              If I have a DNS name configured, how I should use it? Can I lookup using DNS name
              only?
              For Ex this is what I have done-
              I have 2 managed servers : 10.1.30.155 and 10.1.30.151
              I have configured cluster addresses to '10.1.30.155, 10.1.30.151'
              I am using url- 't3://DNSName' for Session Bean lookup.
              Can any one guide me on this?
              Thanks in advance.
              Prasanna
