Yes the maps need to be opened, otherwise they won't get polled.

Chris -

Thanks for your feedback!  You are right... Yes, I can see my lower level
containers change status within a master container representing their
current status.  Do I need to have the "lower level containers" window
minimized to see this change ?

I created a lower level container and assigned to it the "vpn.map"  under
both MAP NAME and IP ADDRESS fields.  At this time, I am receiving updates
but I must have all maps open or minimized...is this necessary ?

Regards,


Manny

Unless I am misunderstanding you completely.......

The VPN container is a subnet within your network map, right?  The VPN
subnet icon SHOULD change color as a device within its map goes down.  I've
got several layers of subnets, and when a device goes down in the deepest
one, the color notification works it way all the way up to the top map.

Issue -

 Currently, I have a map monitoring the network.  In that map I have added
 a container for VPN devices.

 Question:  How can I have the "VPN container" change colors or state if a
 device inside that container is unavailable ?


Thank your for your time and assistance.


Very truly yours,
