Re: [nv-l] Cisco OID Seed File

Not exactly. I usually get good results
by using a negative to override a positive. So you could try this:
10.0.0.* # allow thing in this
range (not a subnet, a range)
!@oid 0 # exclude the non-snmp
things
!@oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.* # exclude
the Microsoft things
!@oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.* # exclude
the HP things
!@oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.* # exclude the
IBM things
As things turn up that you did not want,
add a new oid to the list, netmon -y to reload the seedfile, and delete
them. That positive range effectively limits discovery to that range. So
if you have other ranges, you need to specify them. Then the negatives
will apply to all ranges. If you want to allow certain servers, you will
have to list them.
Another approach, if this subnet is
special, is to exclude that subnet from discovery ( !10.0.0.* ) and then
specifically include the cisco devices by listing them individually in
the seedfile. This is unneccessary for routers, since they will likely
have interfaces on some other subnet which is allowed, and you only need
to allow one router interface to get all of them. But you would need to
list switches and hubs and other single-ip devices that you wanted to discover.

| [nv-l] Cisco OID Seed File |

Is there a detailed FAQ or good examples of the netmon.seed
file?
I'm attempting to discover only Cisco devices (all switches)
located on a subnet that also contains dozens servers. Can I specify
10.0.0.* and cisco_oid; not 10.0.0.* or cisco_oid?
Thanks!
