Windows lacks the PHP features we use to do it.

Thanks for your fast help!

So the difference between discovery and polling is:
* discovery checks ports and snmp basic data like system name etc.
* polling checks response time and snmp measurement data like traffic
usage,...

I was a little bit confused because I initially thought that all snmp
data would go into polling. So name changes would be like changes in
usage or transmitted bytes.....

Thanks for the well done tool. I am using it under Windows. What is the
reason that network auto discovery does not work under Windows?

Thanks again,

Standard will not DO the changes. So you will be alerted of a change
every 30 minutes, but it will add the interface if its new.

Automagic will change the DB when it sees something different.


You can verify this in the Autodiscovery Policy menu somewhere inside
"Administration".

This has nothing to do with polling, just with DB to Host
matching/checking.

Just to get it right:
* when AD is on, jffnms constantly "discovers" the interface to check
for new services, resulting in the observed name changes
* when I switch AD off, no name changes are detected (as they aren't
checked any more), but the polling for data still continues?

What is the difference between AD and polling? Specially concerning this
informational data like names etc.?
What is the difference between Automagic and Standard?

Thanks in advance

Sure, just set the AD policy on that host to Automagic, let it change
whatever it feel it has, and if you then don't want to have that
enabled, turn it off.

Thats just an administrative information telling you that interface
changed its name.

Hi all,

I am using jffnms in a Windows environment and it is running without
problems. But I get every hour messages of the type:
  HP NC7781 Gigabit Server Adap detected modification -
  NOT     Changed Interface Name to HP NC7781 Gigabit Server Adapt
  was HP NC7781 Gigabit Server Adap (Message repeated 4 times

Is there an easy way to suppress them without switching of the
monitoring of the interfaces?

Thanks in advance
J. Hergeth
