The Group Processing Hierarchy
The Group Processing Hierarchy
NetMRI controls processing within device groups by a hierarchical collection of settings in the following order:
- Global settings for network polling and configuration management
- Device group settings
- Device settings
- Interface group settings
If you disable a specific process (such as SNMP collection) at a higher level, then all lower level settings are ignored. This allows administrators to quickly disable all processing of a given type, such as SNMP, without being forced to change individual settings.
