The switches and switch-routers have already been discovered by NetMRI. Switch Port Management polls switches for a detailed collection of information on switch port connectivity, the status of ports, and end devices. For information, see Running the Setup Wizard, Configuring Network Discovery Settings, and Running Network Discovery on Routed and Switched Networks. |
...
Two hierarchical lists appear in the Switch Port Management page, the Select Device Groups list on the right and the Devices, Interfaces, and End Hosts categories on the left. To begin using the Switch Port Management console, select any device group on the right-hand list. Each device group represents a data set from a selected group of network devices. Consider that some device groups (Routing, for example) have systems with ports that will not be managed or cataloged by Switch Port Management.
After selecting a device group on the right, choose either Devices, Interfaces, or End Hosts on the left. Then choose a menu option from the exploded list. For example, Devices has five menu items.

To optimally configure Switch Port Management for end-host detection, ensure that all end-host subnetworks that you want to be managed are included in NetMRI's Discovery IP ranges. The discovered end hosts must also be excluded from the management by NetMRI. This can be done by specifying the IP ranges for the end host network segments in Step 2 of the Setup Wizard or by opening Settings icon > Setup > Discovery Settings following initial NetMRI setup. For more information, see the Configuring Discovery Ranges. |
