Re: [nv-l] Re: nv-l-digest V1 #162 (really a discovery issue)

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

Your subject should really be something
else, don't you think?

Why are you trying to add them?  Can't
they be reached by ping either?
What did you put in the seed file?  The
loopback address?  That's what you should have.
Do all your interfaces on these routers
resolve to the same hostname in DNS or e/tc/hosts?

The proper way to add would be with
the loadhosts command if you cannot discover at all.

Subject	[nv-l] Re: nv-l-digest V1 #162

We are running Netview 7.1.3 on AIX 4.3.3. I am trying to add Cisco routers
to the map with multiple interfaces on different subnet masks. We do not
have the community strings for the devices. I tried doing it with the seed
file but the result did not come out very well. Currently I am  only
doing it manually. Any suggestion on how to automate it will be greatly
appreciated. 

Thanks in advance !
