Adding Ports for Manual Monitoring
When you select the Add Devices button, the Add Devices dialog box displays
a list of devices that are not being monitored. This list is comprised of devices
discovered during the Discovery process and any devices added manually
(Settings -> Discovery -> Additional Devices). Discovery (but not Topology)
must have run before any devices can be added.
Click on the device(s) you want monitored, then click on the Add button. The
device will be added to the Traffic Data Manual Configuration table in the
Configuration page, represented by a folder. Double-clicking on the folder
displays the ports for that device.
After selecting the devices to add, click on the Restart Collector button. The
Traffic Data Collector restarts with these devices.
Configuring Ports for Manual Monitoring
There are two check boxes for each port of a manually monitored device. They
are:
Traffic Stats—The MIB-II SNMP counters (how much traffic is on the
I
network), and any RMON counters supported by that device.
HP X-RMON—The RMON data that allows you to see who is talking to
I
whom on the network.
You can check the Traffic Stats box for any port. Only HP devices support the
monitoring of X-RMON statistics. If you check the X-RMON box for a port, the
Traffic Stats box for that port is automatically checked as well. Even if
X-RMON data cannot be collected for some reason, traffic statistics will be
collected.
After selecting the ports to monitor, click on the Restart Collector button. The
Traffic Data Collector restarts with the new information.
Removing Selected Devices
To remove devices from the table, click on the Remove Device(s) button at the
bottom of the Configuration page. The Remove Device dialog box displays a
list of devices currently being monitored. Select the device(s) to be removed,
then click on the Remove button. Data is no longer collected from these
devices, and they are removed from the Traffic Data Manual Configuration
table.
After selecting the devices to remove, click on the Restart Collector button. The
Traffic Data Collector restarts without these devices.
Remove All Devices
To remove all devices from the table, click on the Remove All Devices button
at the bottom of the page. All devices are removed from the Traffic Data
Manual Configuration table.
