Hello forumers,
Netview 7.1.2 on AIX 4.3.3 ML09
I have received a weird request from our net architecture staff. They want to
setup routers in different countries with the same subnets (and even same
addresses) on their interfaces. Those subnets would not be routed in the
entire network, only locally so that on a strict routing point of view that's
no problem.
Our Netview box would have access to a dedicated loopback address on each
router for management purposes. I know if Netview has access to a given
address on a router, it discovers every other addresses on it. This is what
they want : Netview must manage ALL interfaces (through SNMP polling) and must
report any failing interface.
My problem is that I wonder how netmon will react with all those duplicate
addresses. I may not unmanage anything or else netmon will not poll them
anymore.
Anyone any idea on how I can do this ?? Any suggestion most appreciated.
Bernard Baudoux.
