On the SNMP Configuration panel, down the bottom, is a check box for
discovery poll.  Does this box apply ONLY to the target that you are
currently specifying??  It appears so - if you check on a different
target, it is set at the usual default but I believe I have turned OFF
discovery poll for a specific node and I am still seeing polls.

This node is an 8260, configured to respond to get/set community name
that is not public.  We have also changed our default community name to
the same thing (also not public).  Using a sniffer, we see that NetView
is still sending SNMP gets to this 8260 using a community name of public
- I am assuming that these are discovery polls......  Since the 8260
doesn't support public as a community name, it keeps sending us traps.
Out of 1500 nodes, this and an NT print server, are the only machines
that seem to be getting a poll with public rather than our global
default.

Can anyone shine any light on this one??

Thanks,
Jane
