Discovering Your Network

Loading a Seed Node

To load a seed node, enter the name or IP address of the seed node in the IP Address, Address range, Subnet, CIDR, or DNS Hostname field, and click Add Node (or press Enter).

Note Follow the guidelines for IP addresses in SNMP Configuration Table, page 3-16.

The MWTM displays details of the SNMP settings for the seed nodes in the Seed Details pane. Continue adding seed nodes until you are certain that the MWTM will be able to discover the entire network.

Loading a Seed File

If you have already created and saved one or more seed files, you can load a seed file, change the list of seed files, and select one seed file to be loaded automatically when the MWTM client is started or the Discovery dialog box is opened.

To load an existing seed file, choose File > Load Seeds from the Discovery Dialog menu. The MWTM displays the Load File Dialog: Seed File List dialog box.
