RE: [nv-l] local node submap

["Davis, Donald" <donald.davis@firstcitizens.com>]

You can do what you are asking. There are rules that you must follow for adding objects at each layer of map hierarchy.
You can only add Location symbols at the IP Internet Level.
However, You are allowed to add Ethernet Segment (Bus) symbols at the Network Level.

For example. Click on the ethernet segment symbol symbol, and then pull-down Tools --> Display Object Infromation.
The Selection Name will be like 10.0.81.0.Segment1.  You can then pull-down Edit --> Add Object --> Network --> Bus
and call it 10.0.81.0.Segment2, Segment3, etc...

Then, Label it whatever you like and cut and paste symbols from the old larger segment into the new (Bus) segment.
I have used this to split up NT, AIX and SUN servers into their own Ethernet Segment "containers".

Negatives:
1. As new nodes are discovered it is unpredictable which segment they will be placed in. Care and feeding required.
2. Connections between new segment and any routers and hubs/switches is not drawn.

Subject: [nv-l] local node submap

My customer have six hundreds PC in his building and these PCs connected
through sixteen switchers. In order to manage more easily, customer ask us
to split all nodes into some location (one location stand for one floor).
But NetView can't use location to split the nodes at local.  Does any have
adivce on this ? Thanks.
