conclusion to the list when done.

Jason,

Thank you for clearing those two things up for me!    You are setting the
IF in that subnet to a "very long poll" period.   ok     Does that subnet
wildcard match your subnet mask?   "172.16.1-254.*" would appear that your
IF use 255.255.255.0 as their subnet mask.   If so, then NetView should be
creating network objects of 172.16.xxx on the IP map.       To
autodiscovery  interfaces in 172.16.1.* it would mean that you have to
manage network 172.16.1 on the ipmap.

If you have a complicated map with locations...etc., you may want to build
a collection of "networks" so they all appear in one view.   You could then
see if any are still unmanaged that should be managed instead.

With that said......have you worked through Chapter 2 of the NetView for
Unix Diagnosis Guide?

Thanks,
