Re: [nv-l] Status Monitoring only with MLM - netview has no access to "MLM-Networks"

matthias,

Do you have "-g"  and "-C prefix" specified in your  netmon.lrf?

>From NetView can you snmpwalk your MLM?   Using mib browser at NetView, can
you set a MIB entry at your MLM? If you can't, you have a community string
problem, and netmon has the same problem.

You might be able to speed up netmon's knowledge of the MLM by using "-G
mlmfile" instead of "-g".

-- make sure your operators don't do a ping, quicktest or demandpoll on any
of those devices.   As soon as they do, it will change from green to red
because netmon cannot ping them.

Kind regards,
