Oh, you are saying that the symbol for the interface is not being
created in the node submap for EITHER of the two routers? Perhaps
it is as Ana says, a bug fixed in 6.0.3. I have not seen a problem
with that at 6.0.2, but it could be. It could also be a problem, I
suppose, if you were looking at a read-only map, since moving
an interface involves deleting and creating a symbol.
That said, there is really no reflection at the IP Internet level of
the map when the change takes place. Graphically, it is transparent,
just as it is tranparent to the user. The trouble with magic is that it
is hard to monitor... Therefore if you want to be made aware of
the change, you will need to do it via the events. You could set
up a simple background ruleset to send you a page or email,
or subscribe a dynamic events display to the rule. Or you could
customize the events directly in trapd.conf to put up a popup on
the Motif display - lots of options.

Very much clearer. However, the bia of the interface that "host" the
virtual address is displayed in the object container representing the
router. i.e. the diamond that represents the router when you double click
on
it you see the bia for the interface that host the virtual address HSRP.
However, when you drill down into the node object container that represents
the router you dont see an object that has a label HSRP or otherwise to
denote the interface as an HSRP. The HSRP address is not represented on
the
topology with a symbol. How will status events be noticed when there is no
symbol representing the HSRP?

It is your assumptions that are leading you astray. The routers
will be represented as they always are. The HSRP business
applies to interfaces on those routers. An interface with an
HSRP address will be recognized as such, and will be moved
from one node to the other, depending on where it actually
goes at any given time. It is checked every 5 minutes by
doing an snmpget of sysname via that address, and checking
to see who responds. When you see the delete and add events,
you are seeing Netview moving the interface from one node
to another. Clearer?

Netview 6.02 Aix 4.3.3 I am trying to monitor HSRP addresses from the
Netview Topology Map. I am under the assumption that an object container
will be drawn on the topology representing the active HSRP address. I
havent seen any object containers on the map representing HSRP addresses.
Furthermore, I configured the netmon.seed file with the ip address of the
HSRP interface and have yet to see this interface discovered as an object
on
the map. I cat the trapd.log and see that there are indeed HSRP addresses
being added and deleted from the platform. Why cant I see a HSRP address
on
the topology? What can I do?
