You will have to describe in a great deal more detail just what it is that you are doing, and what you expect the results to be, and what you think is actually occurring.
Discovery works well for most sites, but when it does not, there can be many reasons. Your job is to figure out which it is and correct it.

In addition to what Bill said.....


If it were a router, Netview would have used the connector symbol by default. What you see indicates that Netview has not been able to talk SNMP to this device to determine that it has multiple IP addresses, so it made it a plain node.


If, on the other hand, what you have discovered is a layer2 switch that only has one IP address, then Netview will not promote it to the top level of the map or give it a connector symbol even if it is SNMP. To tell the difference, look at the object information: Tools...Display Object Information. See if it is really SNMP supprted, and if so, what is its SNMP sysObjectID.

RE: [NV-L] Reg Discovery







The default symbol selected when the object is discovered depends on the
relationships of the Object Identifier (OID) found in the
/usr/OV/conf/oid_to_xxxx files and various files in the /usr/OV/bitmaps,
.../symbols and .../fields files.  It's covered in the books.

It's easier to select your node symbol and use the RightMouseClick and
Edit->Change-Symbol-Type service on the classic console.  It's very
similar to how you create an icon manually.
