Add edge devices for monitoring as API-only nodes
When you start the discovery on an orchestrator Summary page and choose to import devices as API-only nodes, SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted prepares a discovery profile discover the devices monitored by the orchestrator. A simplified version of Network Sonar Wizard opens and the orchestrator is automatically selected.
-
In Network Sonar Discovery, review the orchestrator and click Next.
-
Complete the wizard by clicking Discover on the last tab. The wizard searches for the devices via the Orchestrator API.
-
Discovered devices are listed in the Network Sonar Results wizard. Complete the wizard to add the devices for monitoring.
When you finish the wizard, go to the SD-WAN Orchestrator Details page (Settings > Manage Nodes > click the orchestrator node). After the next poll, the page will display data not only for the orchestrator, but also for monitored edge devices.
