A1:
Read about it in the NetView Programmers Reference:
      Chapter 3. Creating and Using the Application Registration File
            Adding Your Application to an Object Menu

A2:
Read about it in the NetView 7.1.3 (or 7.1.4) Release Notes:
      Web Console Enhancements
            Customizing the Web Console Menu

A3:
You can only pass the "Selection Name" to a command you call from the menu.
But you can call your own script and do something like:
      IpAddress=`\usr\ov\bin\nvgethost <Selection Name> | /usr/bin/awk
'{print $3}' | /bin/sed s/,//g`
before calling the web browser.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Oliver

Hi Folks,
I have added a new menu to invoke a web page from a selected device on the
Map, to which I am passing the IP Address (or hostname) of the selected
device as an argument.

Fact-1- I have Managed to have that Menu from the MenuBar "Monitor" ==>
"Events" ==> "MyMenuSelection"

Q1: How do I make that new menu "MyMenuSelection" available when right
clicking on the selected device?

Q2: How do I make that new menu "MyMenuSelection" available on the Web
Console

Q3: How Can I extract the IP Address of the selected device instead of the
selection name (to be used as argument to my command)

Cheers,


Thank You,
Meyos
