Why does the Connection run so slowly, both on discovery and mapping?

Verify the IP configuration and Domain Naming System (DNS) configuration on your management station using the following procedure. If any of the steps fail,

then you might have a network configuration problem. For example, the configured IP address for the DNS might be incorrect.

When one of the steps fails, you can stop at that point and correct the network configuration or you can perform the remaining steps for additional

information.

The output is specific to your network environment and is similar to the following example.

From an MS-DOS®command prompt, perform the following steps:

1. Run the ipconfig command. Verify that the information displayed for your system is correct as follows:

C:\WINNT>ipconfig

Windows NT IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter E100B1:

IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 200.166.3.116

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway . . . . . . : 200.166.3.1

2. Run the nslookup command on the IP address value from step 1. Verify that the information displayed for your system is correct as follows:

C:\WINNT>nslookup 200.166.3.116

Server: dellsys.us.dell.com

Address: 200.166.78.254

Name: mysystem.us.dell.com

Address: 200.166.3.116

3. Run the nslookup command on the management station host name. Verify that the information displayed for your system is correct as follows:

C:\WINNT>nslookup mysystem

Server: dellsys.us.dell.com

Address: 200.166.78.254

Name: mysystem.US.DELL.COM

Address: 200.166.3.116

4. Run the rnetstat command on the management station. Verify that the information displayed for your system is correct as follows:

C:\WINNT>rnetstat -I

Interface IP address Network Mask Network Address Link Address

MS 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.0 <none>

Intel 200.166.3.116 255.255.255.0 200.166.3.0 Intel-BD7C9A

Why am I unable to view the traps from a managed system?

Verify that the IP address of the HP OpenView management station is set as the trap destination in the SNMP service properties of the managed system.
