Before You Start Discovery

ndash How many nodes are supported by your NNMi licenses

ndash How do you want to use these licenses network infrastructure only servers printers hellip

ndash How many geographic areas do you want to poll Does a centralized poller meet your needs

ndash Whatrsquos the general addressing scheme for the network

ndash How much of this network is SNMPV2 how much is SNMPV3

ndash How much is IPV4 how much is IPV6

ndash Where should the management station connect into the network for best visibility

bull 1 MILLION discovered interfaces and 200000 polled

bull Unmatched TCO

ndash GlobalRegional management bull Available to meet hierarchical management structure requirements (regional level requiring different scopes and survivability for independent management)

bull Can be used to avoid polling over expensive WAN links (ie WW distributed polling)

bull To meet needs for consolidated view of extremely large enterprises can scale up to ~65000 nodes in the GNM

bull Efficient communication SSL with 3 ports allows polling thru firewalls
