Hi,
I'm
curious if someone would verify something related to this discussion, the
way I understand the documentation wouldn't someone be able to do this in their
location.conf file:
LOCATION1 192.168.100.1
As
long as LOCATION1 is previously defined, Netview should place a router with an
interface address of 192.168.100.1 into the container LOCATION1, right?
The examples in the location.conf file call this a gateway entry. The
examples indicate that both names and IP addresses are usable for gateway
entries, but I remember someone previously saying on this list that only IP
addresses are valid in a gateway entry. In my situation I have 300+
routers that I currently hide from the IP Map that should be in their own
container as they are all defined with their respective loopback address as a
gateway entry. Maybe I should use the router name
instead?

In
order for location.conf to automatically place the router ALL subnets present
on the device must be in location.conf container. If you have a router with 5
interfaces say in 4 different subnets (lets assume you have a pair of serial
links to another location that are in the same subnet). all 4 of those subnets
must be in location.conf container for that physical site. If you miss one
subnet in location.conf the icon will float back to the ip internet
map.
Correct. However using a fairly specific Location.conf file.
That device with the same name and ip addresses which shows up
correctly in the submap that it should, also keeps showing up on the main IP
Internet map. Now if you are saying that because this device has
multiple IP addresses that it will show up wherever that network segment is,
then I can understand that and remedy that.

Re: [nv-l] Same device multiple
times |
Chris,
NetView places a device on the IP Internet submap, when
a device has
multiple IP addresses in different IP subnets.

Me again,
Q1: Why does
entview continually find teh same device multiple times?
I
have a
device that is already in one submap but it keeps finding it
again
and placing it ont he IP Internet map. I have deleted it from
that
submap, I have ran ovtopofix and ovmapcount and even after I delete
it
once it is polling time again it just finds it again and places it
back
on
the map again?
Anyone?
