118CHAPTER 4: DISCOVERING THE NETWORK

Figure 35 Monitor Core Devices and Links Pane

If you choose the Yes radio button then monitoring of the discovered devices will be started when discovery is complete. By selecting the No radio button no monitoring on the new devices will start at the end of discovery. However, you can subsequently enable monitoring on selected devices from the updated map.

When 3Com Network Director is not operating in automatic monitoring mode the dialog allows you more advanced control over the monitoring of the discovered subnets. See “Controlling Monitoring Type and Polling Rates” on page 296 for a full explanation of automatic monitoring mode, other monitoring modes and the full operation of this pane.

Community Strings Pane

This step of the wizard allows you to specify the SNMP community strings to use for devices while attempting to discover them.
