114CHAPTER 4: DISCOVERING THE NETWORK

discovering is routed over a slow or high latency connection. Changing these settings will also affect subsequent discoveries and monitoring of this subnet. See “Using 3Com Network Director On A Multi-Site Network” on page 681 for more information.

Click OK to return to the Specify Subnets pane of the wizard. The subnet you have just specified has been added to the list box. Note that if you enter information that conflicts with a subnet already in the list, the dialog box will report an error and will not be dismissed. For example, the two subnets 1.2.3.0 / 255.255.255.0 and 1.2.3.192 / 255.255.255.192 cannot both exist – one is a superset of the other.

Editing subnets in the list

You can modify the details of any of the subnets in the list by selecting the item and clicking Edit. This will display the same dialog box as for adding subnets, described above, with each of the fields completed with the information you originally supplied. Modify the fields as necessary and select OK to return to the wizard. 3Com Network Director will not allow you to modify the subnet if it conflicts with another one in the list.

Removing subnets from the list

Select a subnet and click Remove to remove a subnet from the list.

Removing discovered subnets from the list does not remove them from the map, but simply removes them from the list of subnets to rediscover when the Network Discovery is started. The subnet will remain in the map but will be unchanged by the Network Discovery process. See “Deleting Items from the Map” on page 204 for details of how to remove subnets permanently from the map.

Choosing from a list of known subnets

The Find Subnets button instructs 3Com Network Director to attempt to locate the subnets immediately neighboring your local subnet. The located subnets are displayed in the Find Subnets pane.
