Niko;

In version 5.X of NetView, your MLM by default manages and discovers its own
subnet.  However, through collections, you can designate many more devices to
offload the polling to your MLM.  It will not discover outside your subnet,
though.

Since we have IP Addressing and naming standards, I can specify collections with
a range of IP hostnames.  Hopefully, your network has standards that will make
your collection definitions a piece of cake.
