NetView 7.1.3 AIX 4.3.3
I have a question about the interface physical address.
How does NetView use this field?
We have a NT node that provides DNS services. The box has a shadow
interface that is basically a virtual interface. NetView “sees”
this as 2 nodes, not one with 2 interfaces. Each interface has its own DNS
entry, and its own SNMP agent. One agent is Microsoft for the real IP address,
and the other agent is from the DNS software manufacturer. The commonality is
the physical address on the 2 nodes in its interface list. Does NetView not
care about 2 nodes with the same physical address?
Thanks,
