You can try the "mute" and "deaf" options in gmond.conf, they might do what you want, like keeping nodes silent. Note, mute mode will prevent you from monitoring that node unless you have a gmetad poll it for its data directly.
What exactly are you trying to do? Why don't you want all the multicast traffic? If you really don't want multicast them ganglia is probably not the right monitoring tool for you. ~Jason On Wed, 2004-01-28 at 14:51, Adesanya, Adeyemi wrote: > Hi. > > It seems like I have tried just about every option in my gmond configuration > but there appears to be no alternative to multicasts (sigh).
