Ahhh...I got it. Thanks for the response. I'll probably use the high
value in xnmsnmpconf.
To clarify, if I were to use the (^), would that also prevent config
checks after netmon restarts?
Thanks,

Delay what? Delay the status polling? No. That's a separate issue
from the config check. The config checks run along side the status
polling and the time they take should not interfere with status polling.
Delay the config check, which happens only once per day by default?
Yes. But how long a time-out are we talking about? A few seconds per
node?
As I see it, if you have devices which should never be SNMP polled you
have two choices. You can raise the config check interval just for them
to some really high value (say once a month?) in xnmsnmpconf, or you
can indicate in the seed file devices which should never be SNMP polled
using a caret
(^) and an address range. At least that's my understanding.

[NV-L] Status/Config Polling of
08/02/2006 10:38 non-snmp nodes and netmon
AM performance
Please respond to

Per previous posts and documentation, Netview will use ICMP only to
poll NON-SNMP nodes for status. However, will it still try to perform a
configuration check (which is done via SNMP) per snmp.conf's time
intervals for "Configuration Polling Intervals".
I will probably be faced with adding several nodes to be monitored that
will not support SNMP (security reasons). My concern/question is, would
these non-SNMP nodes cause netmon to slow down waiting on SNMP to time
out when it is restarted and it performs timed configuration checks. If
I understand correctly, netmon will still check nodes for SNMP when it
is restarted and during Configuration polling intervals.
Could someone please advise.
Thanks,
