NeophyteWe have several Cisco ASAs which run in multi-context mode.
Is LogicMonitor able to automatically discover and populate the contexts for each device or it is necessary to manually add every context to LM as a separate resource?
Having read around, I can't find too much on the subject so I'm expecting the latter, but an answer one way or another would put my mind more at ease.

NeophyteHi Matt,
At present, LogicMonitor does not automatically discover and populate individual contexts on a Cisco ASA running in multi-context mode. Each context operates as a virtual firewall with its own configuration and SNMP context, so you’ll need to add each context manually as a separate resource in LogicMonitor.
To monitor each context effectively, you’ll:
Add the ASA multiple times to LM once for the system context, and once for each user-defined context.
Use the snmp.context property on each resource to define which SNMP context LogicMonitor should query.
There’s no built-in automation yet for pulling all contexts dynamically, but once set up, you’ll get granular visibility per context, which is often more useful operationally.
Hope that clears it up!
