FORCE NETWORK DISCOVERY

Summary: This procedure describes the steps required to perform a forced network discovery. The forced discovery function compares the NMIC database with the physical topology to ensure the physical equipment on the ring matches what the NMIC thinks is there.

1.Select the Configuration pull down menu, Topology, and Force Network Discovery from the task bar by single clicking on it with the left mouse button or by hitting Alt+C, Alt+T, and Alt+F. Refer to Figure 719-1.

2.The system responds with a message window stating that the GUI is forcing rediscovery on the network and to please wait as shown in Figure 719-2.

3.If the system fails to force network discovery, and error message will appear as shown in Figure 719-3. The user should then verify the RIC cards are in a normal state (status LEDs are green) at each node and then return to step one of this procedure.

Stop! You have completed this procedure.
