Well, sorry Maxine. I am not the MLM guy. I just made a suggestion how
to get around the problem that you had, namely that you needed to get a
node in the database so that MLM could poll it. The suggestion I made
seems to have worked. Why the montioring is not workig correctly I cannot
tell you. You'll have to wrok that out for yourself or call Support.
Sorry

Hi,
I have tested the loadhosts command to load the equipment into my netview
map an database.
This equipment was on my IP Map and in the smartset of the MLM that can
ping it.
The MLM take it into account because i can saw it in the MLM status
monitor table, in addition with a sniffer I can see the ICMP packet from
my MLM to my equipment.
But the problem is that the icon is red on my Netview maps and sometime
turn green but it is red most of the time.
Stephen I did not try with the SNMP proxy because i don't have one.
Cordialement.

MLM will not discover outside its network, period.
And NetView will not discover a node it cannot ping at least once.
You might try using loadhosts to load this object and then see if once
loaded and moved to the MLM Smartset if MLM can status poll it.

Subject: [nv-l] MLM Discovery
Hi,
I know that's it is possible to poll from an MLM an equipment which is
outside its Network. ( By the use of rules on the MLM smarstet)
But is it possible for an MLM to discover and poll an equipment outside
its network, furthermore this equipment could not been ping by Netview.
Cordialement.
