[nv-l] Difference between Network Node & Network Interface

[Richard_C_Barr@reliantenergy.com]

Hi all,

What is the difference between a network node and a network interface.

Netview v7.1.2 forwards events to Tivoli Enterprise Console in the form of

TEC_ITS_INTERFACE_STATUS
and
TEC_ITS_NODE_STATUS

Is it possible Netview can distinguish between a Server/(node) and a
Router/interface?

My guess is, Netview sees everything as an interface, a router, a server
interface, etc.

So, what is up with the network node?

thanks in advance....
