Thanks for ALL of the replies.

$ netcheck CORE_ROUTER2
Node                     ICMP Echo         TCP Connect          SNMP Get
CORE_ROUTER2                 6 ms.              OK                 OK

$ sudo loadhosts -p -m 255.255.255.240 <<EOF

loadhosts seem to work like a charm.  I have a few more things I would like
to look at, but this looks to do the trick.

Thanks,
Jason

Jason,

You also want to verify that you can talk to the device for discovery.    A
great way to do that is with /usr/OV/bin/netcheck


note:   if my memory serves me right, if you ping an IF that exists within
a NetView managed subnet, then it should get discovered.    If you ping an
IF that is in a subnet that NetView does NOT know about or manage, it will
not add that subnet and device.     Loadhosts will add the subnet and
device.

check out the man pages for netcheck and loadhosts.

Thanks,
