[nv-l] PIX interface issues

[Michael_Noonkesser@bluecrossmn.com]

Hi list

Netview 7.1.3 FP4 Solaris 2.8

I am having great difficulty getting
one of my Cisco PIX firewalls to cooperate.
Scenario: I have the inside interface
as xxx.xxx.xxx.10 and external as xxx.xxx.xxx.11 These two are fine and
report up always.
I have 6 additional interfaces on each
side of the firewall. This is the problem, these interfaces come and go
almost daily(not all at once) for whatever reason, when they drop they
report as their internal or external  interface IP.
Either .10 or .11 respectively. I have
unmanaged them all ( these 12 additional ) they still report as down to
Netview as the .10 or .11 interface as being down.

I have them designated as do not discover
in the seed file,editing it directly with vi and adding a ! in front of
all these interfaces except for the primaries .10 and .11.
I have added the > character in front
of these two primaries as well.

I have deleted everything from the maps
via Edit>delete>object>from all submaps numerous times to no avail

The security folks are becoming a bit
miffed at me when they get paged on this for no apparent reason.

ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Regards,

Mike Noonkesser
