Hi all,

first  " a happy new year" to everybody.

I have a question about discovery of layer 2 devices :

In my opinion netview discovers a subnet , while reading
the routing table of a layer 3 device. The devices in this subnet
become discoverd only, when they appear in the arp table of
the layer 3 device.

How discovers netview a layer 2 device in this subnet, which do not
appear in the arp table. Does netview do a braodcast ping?

Thanks

Swen




Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Kind regards
