HP NNM 7.0 - DHCP exclusion 2

[mmiller3]

I am running NNM v7 on a windows 2000 system. I am looking to use NNM to monitor our infrastructure, not to the desktop level. Is there a way that I can exclude my DHCP ranges from being discovered....

Thanks

You can set up a discovery filter to limit what is discovered.

Here is a filter for all Cisco devices:
CiscoFilter "all cisco devices"
{ "SNMP sysObjectID" ~ .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.1.* }

A filter expression can be written that would allow you to also include
other network device SNMP sys object ID's such as Wellfleet,
.1.3.6.1.4.1.18.*, or Cayman, .1.3.6.1.4.1.7.2.*

See the Scalability and Distribution Guide Appendix A and remember to use
the ovfiltertest and ovfiltercheck.

You should look into the netmon.noDiscover file. I work on HPUX but I do believe it exists for W2K as well. It allows you to specify ranges of IP addresses (among other things) that you do not want netmon to discover.
