I have tried this and numerous other wildcard entries. Nothing seems to work. Could the network group be blocking any of this traffic at the routers?

What is the difference in the traffic from discovery to specific IPs?

Thanks

Try adding one specific IP address per subnet as an initial seed entry such as:

10.60.180.x

where x is a valid IP address (like a router)

If that does not help to get that subnet discovered, then try a different syntax for your range, like

10.60.180.1-255

instead of 10.60.180.*.

Yes. I have also added one and more of the routers into the seed file as well. Still no luck
AIX 5.1
Netview 7.1.3 (fixpack 1 and 2)

Have you tried pinging a router within one of those subnets while discovery is running?

I have tried a number of configurations but can not get it to discover devices the way I want them to. I have a number of subnets that I manage, lets say (10.60.180.*-10.60.190.* and 10.60.120.*-10.60.132.*). I would lick to have netmon auto discover anything on these subnets. The only way I can get the devices to show up is to add each device into the seed file. How can I get the devices to be auto discovered. I have tried what the config docs say making my netmon.seed file look this:

10.60.180-190.*
10.60.120-132.*

But the only thing that gets discovered is the Netview server and the default route. I have tried a number of others for example:

10.60.180.*
10.60.181.*
10.60.182.*

…and so on

But nothing other than specific IPs seem to be working

Any advice would be great
Thanks
