I have several remote access subnets (a few dial, some vpn) where remote users are allocated DHCP addresses. I do not want to manage these nodes and set them to unmanaged - but Netview keeps setting them back to managed (and inevitably changes their state to down) - I suspect because it detects the connection as new (different MAC address perhaps) even though the IPs are the same. Is there way to permanently set a block of addresses to unmanaged? Netview 7.1.4 Thanks for your time,
