I appreciated your responses to my earlier question about the Interface capability. I'm getting warmer......
Anyone else run into the following behavior? I wonder it's by design, a bug or due to my grasp of all this. I scanned up some routers that fit the profile of my custom device 'Cisco3600' - that template includes the Interface service. My newly discovered device gets modeled but quickly goes magenta, indicating service down. Edit >Properties....Services shows a check-mark in the Interface box. I click the AutoDiscover button and multiple router interfaces are discovered; for ones that are running, the box is checked. Also, the the 'global' Interface box (at the top of the Interface list) which was previously checked due to my initial discovery session, that is now unchecked. I give the detailed interface window an OK, drop back from Edit to Map, then rightclick a 'check now'. The router icon goes green in a blink with the more detailed interface list. What's Up with this? Version 7 interface/service discovery seems partial at best, unless I drive it on a router by router basis. It occurs to me that this may have to do with 'SCOUNT=' my the hosttype.ini, but I dunno. Maybe the initial discover/scan code is interested in something other than ifOperStatus or whatever OIDs are involved here. Anyway, what I'm finding seems much more global than the intermittent service down issue, addressed by the KB article that Tim Farley helpfully pointed out. Any takers? ;-) TIA -Don ******************* PLEASE NOTE ******************* This message, along with any attachments, may be confidential or legally privileged.
