Re: [nv-l] incorrect symbol type
2004-03-17 12:29:53
Symbols are determined by the /usr/OV/conf/C/oid_to_sym
file. If all the devices return the same system Object Id, then they
should all have the same symbol. If they don't respond when queried,
they may get a default. You can add entries to oid_to_sym if some
are returning a different oid, but you would have to delete and re-discover
them. Symbols are set at discovery time only.

| [nv-l] incorrect symbol type |

Q1: I have 10 Cisco Routers all almost identical to one another
I have them placed in the seed file these are new devices, when
I start netmon with the seedfile (-s) it finds all the Cisco devices,
HOWEVER it only marks about half of them with the proper symbol.
Even though when I look at them in the objects database they all show the
same attributes as far as connector =TRUE Router = TRUE ,etc. is
there a reason it is only placing the symbol and about half of them?
Or is this more of a PMR thing. One little note (which I hate to
put here) is that these are EVPN routers. They have an ACL
that allows me to get to the loopback address of them, I have the Read
Only Community string. I can read all the information I want about
them through the mib browser.
