Discovery Seeds for Auto-Discovery Rules

Provide at least one discovery seed per auto-discovery rule. The options for providing the seeds are as follows:

  • Enter seeds on the Discovery Seed form by clicking Seeds under Discovery in the Configuration workspace.

  • Use the nnmloadseeds.ovpl command to load information from a seed file.
  • Enable ping sweep for the rule, at least for initial discovery.
  • Configure a device to send SNMP traps to the NNMi management server.
