Hello Everyone.

We've had a problem with NetView doing continuous snmp polls of several of
our Cisco frame relay hub routers. The reason for the constant polls is
because there were 5 administratively down HSSI sub interfaces. These are
sub-interfaces that will soon be activated for new installs. I changed the
netmon startup option from -K 0 to -K 2. And the constant polling
immediately stopped. 

Status polling is at 5 minute default and there is no SNMP status polling
setup in the seed file.

Here are my questions:

If I suppress pings (and SNMP requests) to unreachable routers - how does
NetView learn that an interface is now reachable? 

How does this affect updates to the map? When a site does come back up after
a circuit failure for instance. 

Thanks in advance.
