Create a device class called /Unmonitored and set the
zPingMonitorIgnore and zSnmpMonitorIgnore to true on it. You can then
run zendmd from the command line as the zenoss user and add these IP-
less devices as with commands like the following.
dmd.Devices.Unmonitored.createInstance('deviceName1')
dmd.Devices.Unmonitored.createInstance('deviceName2')
