Identifying Unwanted Protocols

Select Unwanted Protocols to display a screen that allows you to identify protocols on the network that you want NetTool to warn you about. This feature can be especially helpful to you during a network-wide migration away from certain protocols. If NetTool sees a particular protocol, it reports it to you in the Problem Log.

Manually Assigning NetTool an IP Address

Notes

By default, NetTool uses DHCP to obtain its IP address. If you have DHCP on your network, you can skip this section because no further configuration is required.

For manual configuration, make sure any IP address you assign to your NetTool is correct for the subnet you are on.

To manually assign an IP address:

1.Select IP Setup to display the IP Setup screen.

2.Select Manual.

3.Press the Down b arrow key to highlight the address you want to configure (in this case NetTool), then press SELECT to display the Edit screen (Figure 2-3).
