Re: [nv-l] SNMP vs ICMP
2003-10-06 18:33:16
If you have $ entries in your netmon.seed file then ping should not be
used (unless an operator uses the Test -> Ping menu). The way I usually
check is with the netmon -a commands:
netmon -a 8 shows nodes being status polled with SNMP
netmon -a 12 shows netmon's ping list (if status polls use
SNMP, the first field should be a very large number)
netmon -a 16 shows netmon's SNMP list
All output is in /usr/OV/log/netmon.trace.
Cheers,
Jane

Hello,
I want to use SNMP only not SNMP and icmp with NetView to prevent double traffic
I found out that /usr/OV/bin/ovtopodump -rl <device name> returns some data which contains
"SNMP STATUS POLL: MAXIMUM TIME" which means that the device is configured for ICMP requests
My question here: Does this device also configured for SNMP requests since I
added it to the seedfile with $ in the front of the device name ?
The second question is that how I turn the ICMP request off and just keep the
SNMP request?
I guess by issuing the following command Netmon -M0?
Is that right?
