Without SNMP NetView will never see these routers as routers. Instead he will
treat every interface as a separate node because he will not know to tie them
together in one box and thus will not know it is a router. My guess is that you
are already getting generic nodes for these "devices" on the various submaps and
that is why you do not see a "router" on the IP Internet map. This is covered
in detail in the NetView Diagnosis manual.

I am trying to populate on my Netview map 3 routers that I can successfully
PING but does not have snmp access to. Is this possible ? Or do I need to
have al least SNMP read access to the routers for Netview to put on my map ?
Thanks
Muni.
