AutoDiscovery is still running.
Known AutoDiscovery Anomalies in SPECTRUM 6.0
Problem 1: AutoDiscovery may fail to discover a Token Ring the first time
AutoDiscovery is run. It may find one ring while failing to find another ring.
Solution: Run Ring Discovery, and the missing ring will be found.
Problem 2: AutoDiscovery does not autoplace devices discovered in an
ATM_network.
Solution: This problem will be fixed in a future release of SPECTRUM.
