Richard,
Not knowing the specific environment you are experiencing this problem with, I
would guess that your polling interval for status is too short. You should be
able to ping all of the devices you intend to monitor in an amount of time
shorter than your polling interval for status. A good way to look at netmon are
the netmon activity bars at the bottom of the console window.

Subject: Netview NT polling problems
I am monitoring about 2500 devices with Netview for up/down status
basically. I have my polling interval set to every 3 minutes. But when my
nodes go down Netview turns the status icon red but when they come back up
it takes longer than 3 minutes for the status to change back to green.
Sometimes it doesn't change back to green until a do a manual ping. Is
there something I'm missing I though Netview polled every ip device every 3
minutes if that is how I have it set.
Thanks in advance
Brian
