I have had this in the past where an interface that was AD was
re-configured on the router and the only way I could find to get Netview to
recognise it not being AD anymore was to delete the router and let Netview
rediscover it. Upon rediscovery it picked the interface up in the correct
state. Not the most elegant of solutions but it worked.......

Subject: Antwort: Administrativly Down
Hallo Roger,
we have the same problem for some of our router interfaces (Cisco routers)
with NetView 5.1.1. I think these interfaces were administratively down
some time ago and are not corrected by a demand poll, although they are up
in the meantime and working correctly. The MIB-variable ifAdminStatus is
up, so NetView should know that these interfaces are not administratively
down.
I have called support, but since now no reaction.

Thema: Administrativly Down
I have been experiencing some problems with NetView 5.0 for AIX polling our
routers. The problem is NetView for some reason or another has placed some
of the routers interfaces in a administratively down condition. No matter
how may demand polls I do NetView will skip the interface due to an
administratively down condition, even deleting the router and allowing
NetView to rediscover the device, the Administratively down condition
remains.
The interfaces NetView sees as "AD" I cannot detect anything wrong with
them. They are up and operating properly (at least according to the
router)
My question is:
Is there any way to force NetView to re-verify/discover the "AD"
interfaces?
Thanks
