Dominic -

Try doing a little reading in the NetView User's Guide for Beginners and 
the Administrator's Reference.  You will be glad that you did.  These 
concepts are explained in great detail.

The seed file controls how netmon handles discovery.  In it you put nodes 
he must discover (the "seeds") plus other entries which control how other 
things are handles, like HSRP addresses, nodes to polled only by SNMP and 
never by ping, and ranges which are valid for discovery and so on.

xnmsnmpconf is the utility which allows you to alter the SNMP 
configuration, which netmon, snmpCollect, and other processes will use. 
Here you can set netmon's polling intervals and the community names he 
should use. 

Hope this helps

hi, aix 4.3.3 and netview 7.1

What the difference between (netmon, seedfile) and (snmp configuration
polling in option/snmp configuration menu) ?

they do the same job ? or snmp configuration polling goes in mib database 
?

thank
