LMS 3.2 CM Device Discovery multiple interfaces

[Wolfgang Maier]

Hi,

we use LMS 3.2 in our network. We have a couple of 6509-V-E Switches with mutiple interfaces (VLAN interfaces and Layer 3 interfaces) The problem is, campus manager discovers the switch by a interface randomly...one time its a lay3 Interface and another one its a vlan interface which none of them are in DNS hence no name resolution can be made.

Is there a way to "tell" CM to us for instance the VLAN Management IP of the switch?

Thank you.

Regards,

Christian

easiest would be to add an appropriate DNS entry or - if this is not possible, use the hosts file on the server, add the name and the IP you want LMS to use;

Hi Martin,

Thank you. That did it. i had to set also "resolve by sysname" in discovery option.
