I am not near a V5.1 Admin Guide, or V5.1 Inst & Config Guide where
these things are documented, but I'm pretty sure that negative address
ranges were present in V5. A negative address range can look like
!1.2-3.4.*
There used to be a belief that you had to flush the database for
such restrictions to work. I know that is no longer true, but perhaps
it really was true then. I don't know for sure. But try this:
ovstop netmon
Delete the things you don't want (from all submaps)
Delete them from any other maps you might have
(stop netmon quickly of opening other maps restarts it)
ovtopofix -a (or -A, depending on how many maps you have)
Make sure the seedfile is in place
ovstart
Now, pinging an unwanted address should NOT result in it
being added to the map.
Note that you cannot prevent the discovery of interfaces on
a router if one of its interfaces is allowed by your rules. But
no additional nodes should be found for the subnet you
exclude, even if it is drawn to accomodate a router interface.

Thank you Bernard.
It WORKED fine with my Netview V6.02 AIX 4.3.3.
Now, I have another Netview V5.1.2 AIX 4.3.2 - here this is NOT WORKING at
all.
do you know how to exclude nodes in seedfile of Netview V5.1.2?
Thanks,
Avikam.

Avikam,
before discovery add an entry in the seedfile prefixed with an exclamation
point (!).
ex:
!10.10.10.10 #prevents discovery of node 10.10.10.10
You can use wildcards.
beware this will tell netmon not to discover the node, it will not tell him
to delete the node if it already exists in the db.
Regards,
Bernard Baudoux.
