So, a dynamic configuratio isn't possible then? Say a Cicso router is
installed with
address 10.10.11.132, it won't show up in the maps?!
If I run 6.01 (Unix or NT), I won't discover a device with all of the
interfaces, only the ones
included in the seedfile, but prior to 6.01 I will, is that what You say?
And, one more question to (hopefully) make me understand netmon.seed; if I
make a positive see entry
in netmon.seed, will everything else be excluded? Say I put

10.10.10.1

as the only entry, will I get only one node in the map?

The only way I know of would be to exclude address ranges.
Assuming your 1.3.6.1.4.1.18 devices on 10.10.10.* are at
( or have at least one interface at)  addresses 1-6, and the cisco
devices on 10.10.11.* are (or have at least one interface at)
addresses 1-20 and 128-148, I would use this in the seedfile:

!10.10.10.7-255
!10.10.11.21-127
!10.10.11.149-255

The @oid entries are only across-the-board, they cannot be
applied to specific parts of the network. The exclusions will
exclude nodes that have all of their interfaces in those ranges.
If you are on Unix, or on NT prior to 6.01, the devices you do want
to find will be discovered with all of their interfaces, provided they
have at least one interface that falls in an included range.
