we have a token-ring class b with 800+ nodes. obviously the corresponding
map is not very helpful.
i tried to split the map-topology into class c segments.

my class b net is 172.16.0.0/16.
in the "IP Internet" map i added the object "IP Network" with the
label="172.16.10.0" and
set the Object Attribute "Network Subnet Mask" to 255.255.255.0.
now i expected netview to join all nodes from this logical subnet under the
new network-icon. but the new submap remains empty.
please don't tell me that i have swap the nodes manually into the new
topology schema.

i know i could accomplish this task via collections, but i have further
ideas which can't be defined that way
(e.g. showing the collision domains in bridged subnets).

Mit freundlichen Gruessen - Yours sincerely
