RE: [nv-l] cannot get the object in map

Have you tried adding that router to the seedfile? If not, you can access it by going to Options - Netmon Seed Editor. Highlight set initial discovery seeds - then hit add and either enter the IP or the hostname (make sure it's the "nearest hop" interface though). Just hit save and answer yes when asked to update the network monitor. Try a ping a few seconds later and typically it will appear. I've had many nodes on the back side of firewalls and VPNs where this is the only way to get them discovered.

Good luck,
