Hi guys,
Thanks for the prompt reply!
The pc segment is already configured using "$" to signify
DHCP clients.
Strange thing is this status issue only occurs to new PCs
added to the segment as they are replacing the old existing NT PCs to XP
machines.
I believe
the new PCs took the old IP addresses as most of them is on DHCP
and some on static.
btw how do i change the object's polling from SNMP to ping?
Edit the object in ovsnmp.conf file? Or should i delete the object and let nv
rediscover it again?
best regards,

You issue is probably because netmon is trying to monitor the status of this object using snmp instead of ping. If it doesn't answer to snmp, it will still show down, even if it respond to ping. The way this is configured is usually with the "$" in the netmon seed file. You can test if this is the problem with the quicktest command: it will do a status polling using the same method as netmon.

Hi there, I'm a new netview administrator and facing an issue. We've got a netview is a default installation with a configured netmon.seed, netview discovers all objects and all device status are reflected properly when down. On the user PC objects sometimes it would turn red signifying down status. Verfication of the physical PC is up and netview doing test ping would turn the object to green. After leaving the object for awhile it would turn red again, even though the PC is up. Please advice on what steps should I take to resolve this issue. The netview is 7.1.4 FP4 running on a windows 2003 server and console is using remote desktop to monitor the netview.
