Use SNMP status polling (with $ char in seed file) so that netview is not
trying to ping the 192 addresses. Make sure that the SNMP agent on that box
does not have ipForwarding=True other NV will get confused.
If NV still reports duplicate IP addresses, PLEASE report this as a bug. I
tried before but didn't get very far (developers have designed it this way
they say ???)

Subject: [NV-L] Duplicate ip addresses in network.
The network I work on has been customized with duplicate addresses of
192.168.10.150 and 192.168.10.151. These addresses were assigned to
a total of eight platforms/hosts (i.e., four have addess of 192.168.10.150
and
four have address of 192.168.10.151). The network architect felt it was
okay to do this because 192.168.10 is considered a "private network" and
is not routed over the network. The platforms with these addresses contain
two
additional network cards which are unique and which are what I really
want to monitor.
I have tried via a seedfile to get netmon to ignore these addresses
(i.e., !192.168.10.150-192.168.10.151) but netmon still finds the
addresses...because of the other network addresses in these platforms, I
think.
I see in the NetView Diagnsis Guide the documented solution is to "Correct
the
problem in your network". However, it would be more desirable if I could
just get NetView to ignore the duplicate addresses. Does anyone know
another way to get NetView to ignore the duplicate addresses but still
monitor the
rest of the platforms?
Thanks, Anne Schahfer
