I'm not sure if you are on Unix or if
it works the same, but in Windows, when I delete a device and want it rediscovered
right away I just ping it.

If you want immediate rediscovery then you must put the deleted device
in the seed file as a positive discovery seed. 
Just add it's name if you are using DNS or primary IP address to the file
and one of the first things netmon will do is go out and try to find the
device. 
Otherwise you wait for it's IP address to show up in some other node's
ARP cache.   netmon won't know it is there unless someone tells him
about it.  If you want him to find ti immediately, then you have to
be the someone.

Hi,

I have a continuous problem with NV713. When I have to re-discover a site
or
a device I delete this and stop and restart netmon daemon. I thought this
is
restarts discovery and the deleted site or device will be re-discovered.
Unfortunately, it does not happen every time. Sometimes the device re-appear
in a few days, sometimes it never showed again. What can be the reason
of
this? How can I avoid?

Thank you
Laszlo
