You cannot turn it off, but you could defeat it, by using a specific entry
ofr it in xnmsnmpconf to give it a configuration polling interval so large
that in effect netmon will never check it again. You could specify
thousands of days for example.

Subject: [NV-L] Polling for Configuration changes
I have a firewall interface that once every 24 hours NetView does a config
check. This cause the firewall to believe it is unauthorized traffic and
shuts down any response back to the NetView server for 1 hour. So, when the
next ping goes to the firewall, NetView sows it down. Could you give me
some
direction what I do to defeat any SNMP traffic to the firewall. I have
NetView 6.01, AIX4.3.3 on an RS6000 H80.
thx
