[nv-l] seed file

["Christopher J Petrina" <cjp8@meadwestvaco.com>]

Greetings all,

UNIX netview.  Using a seefile forl imited discovery.  In the seedfile I have multiple entries (multiple IP's) for the same device, ie(every ip interface of a single router) is in the seedfile.  When netview runs through the seedfile it finds the first IP of a device when it comes to the second IP of that device what does netview do.  Each IP interface also has an entryo in DNS as well.  Does netview change the name of the device if it finds another name.  Also once it has initially found it, and then polls the device (SNMP) what name will it chose for the device in netview, and why does it sometimes change the name of the device.
