Hi All,

Looking to find out where I can get detailed information about things like AutoDiscovery, mpaings of devices, how new devices are discovered via SNMP.

Autodiscovery:  information on how it performs autodiscovery on a router, such as when a new router is added to the seedfile, does it first do a traceroute to get to the device, and if this device is a WAN device does it use the serial interface out of the LAN over the WAN to the device as the primary object Identification for that device.   Does ituse arp table lookups to find the device? Things of that detail

Also more indepth about location.conf, such as I have two routers which serve as the WAN entry points.  each router has a set of subnets for each site attached to it.  the serial interface on the near side and the serial interface on the far side.  in a location.conf file how would I dictate where to put the subnet(network). I know that gateways belong outside the sub containers.

I have looked through all the redbooks and the release notes, admin guides, user guides but there is not much int he way of intense detail about these things?

Thanks for the Help
