Last thing:

Then, every node must be discover using ping (ICMP trafic) ???

Is there another discovering option which avoid this kind of traffic??


Thank you very much:

Jose M.

The detail you are missing is this:
$xx.xx.xx.xx   is just a directive telling netview how to poll
that particular device IF it ever discovers it.
xx.xx.xx.xx is a seed entry, telling netview to be sure to
discover the device at that address.
So to do what you want, that is, force discover AND poll
via snmp, you need BOTH entries.

Cordially,

Hi all

In my Netview environment I would want to discover cisco routers just for
SNMP instead of normal ping  (ICMP).
After an installation by default (Netview 6.0.2 on Solaris 2.6 platform) I
put the "$" symbol with router entries in the seed_file.

Unfortunately the Netview system can´t discover these nodes, but if I
remove this symbol they are quickly discovered but (logically) using ICMP.

I know it is also possible putting "P" in the oid_to_type file, but I would
like to use first option.

Does anyone could help me?

Thanks in advance:

Jose M.
