If you launch a Real Time Chart from within OpenView or NetView, and the
device you selected is not known to the Performance Wizard, the New
Device dialog box is displayed by default.
2. Enter the Hostname or IP Address of the device in the Device Name text
input field.
3. Enter the Read/Write Community string in the Community input field.
NOTE:
You must specify a Set (Write) Community string for any component that
requires Write access to the device, such as Diagnostic Tests, SLM
Reports, and Configure Device.
4. Click on OK.
Most operations that you perform using the Performance Wizard require that you
select a device, device interface, or DLCI from the Device Display Area. The
Device Display Area organizes devices under the headings Entire Network and
Location.
Entire Network, when expanded, shows the list of all devices contained in the
Performance Wizard database sorted by IP Address. Location, when expanded,
displays all Location IDs extracted from the MIB variables. If the Location IDs list
is not expanded, double-click on Location to display the list.
The column headings in the Device Display area are buttons. Clicking on a
column heading will sort the list based on that column. Sort will be in ascending
order and clicking again re-sorts the list by that column in descending order.
