FIGURE 3-8 Discovery Configurator – Other Discovery Tab
This tab lists sysOIDs (SNMP system Object Identifiers) of devices to be included for discovery. Any device discovered by
way of SNMP will be rejected unless its sysOID is one of these from this table. The defaults for this table are the ATI devices
fully-supported by the AlliedView NMS.
As shown below, the “Translate Display” toggle can be checked to display sysOIDs as translated names, provided the names
are adequately defined by the MIBs installed with the AlliedView NMS. Names will be a mix of numbers and names where
available MIBs are not complete. When unchecked, sysOIDs are displayed as instance identifiers (numbers only).
Additional sysOIDs can be added, modified, or deleted with the Add, Modify, and Delete buttons. Added sysOIDs can be dis-
played and minimally managed (live status monitoring, for example).
When adding or modifying sysOIDs, names or numbers may be entered into the sysOID text field whether or not the “Translate
Display” toggle is selected. Names will be resolved to numbers if the appropriate MIBs are installed. Otherwise the user will be
prompted to enter the sysOID in numeric form.
The default sysOIDs cannot be modified or deleted.
