Hi!
I'm running Netview 7.1.2 on a SUN 220R with Solaris8.
I have quite a bit of events being forwarded to this central machine from
other Netview machines. I have a couple of RFC1918 IP nets being managed by
the edgeservers and all events are being forwarded to this central machine
where all the rule-processing is done. I can't have DNS entries in the
central machine for these RFC1918 IP's since they will collide.
If I just ignore this the DNS timeouts will make everything very slow, and
it's not a very good solutions to rely on timeouts, so I need to solve this
in some way.
I had hoped that since the edgeservers resolve the IP's in their respective
network the central machine wouldn't have to, but apparently it doesn't
work like that :-)
I thought about making a script and use that to send events from the
edgeservers and then put the edgeserver's IP in the agent field and make
sure I can resolve that at my central machine.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this in an elegant way?
