Look at containers as a symbolic link to another map... in your example, you would build a separate map of only those devices you need and then create a container link to that map from the main map. The way I use them here is to break down my network by logical network segments. All being polled by a parent map breaking down the network by physical location and those being polled by a parent map from the main map... Sure makes admin of the whole network, including server farms a whole lot more meaningful...

I got an impression (which might not be correct) that they can hold and reflect the status of multiple devices. For example if a have a dozen or so routers, and all I need to monitor on them is ICMP, can I place them all in a container? Thanks!
