Thanks for your help! I have loaded the device, unmanged the interface and added into servmon.conf for monitor particular port status.

 

I have a small query here. After un-managing a device or interface, can we expected events from that device?

 

Please help!

 

Thanks

Senny

Yes, well, I always say, if you want to manage something, it has to be managaBLE.

But yes, there is the service manager function that can discover and test ports. You will have to add the node to the map in the first place, manually, with an ip address. You will have to unmanage the IP interface card. Then monitor its status by the status of the port check.  Read about it in the admin guide.

[NV-L] Bringing Device under monitoring without ICMP/SNMP

 




Hi Team,
 
I am planning to bring a device under monitoring purview of Netview 7.1.5. The challenge here is (may be just for me), I don’t have either ICMP and SNMP Access to the subject device, but I still have access to some of its critical port.
 
How can I bring this device under monitoring with just port access?
 
Expert advise is anticipated.
 
Thanks
Senny
