If the file that you select is correctly formatted and contains valid subnet
information then all subnets listed in the selected file will be added to the
subnets list.
If your file contains any errors, 3Com Network Director will display the
first error it finds, and then reject the whole file: no subnets will be added
to the subnets list. You should correct any errors and re-import the file.
Each subnet can only appear in the subnets list once. If your file contains
any subnets that duplicate subnets already present in the subnets list, the
ranges of the duplicates will be merged.
If your file contains any subnets that overlap with subnets already present
in the subnets list then those subnets will not be imported and a list of
rejected subnets will be displayed. Similarly, if you file contains two or
more subnets that overlap with each other but that do not overlap with
subnets already present in the subnets list then only the first of these
subnets will be imported and the remainder will be rejected.
Monitor Core Devices and Links Pane
The next step of the wizard allows you to configure how devices will be
monitored for stress when the discovery process is complete and the map
has been updated with any new devices.
There are two versions of this dialog, depending upon which options are
selected within the Monitoring tab of the
Tools > Options dialog box. By
default 3Com Network Director is configured to use an automatic
monitoring mode in which 3Com Network Director itself determines the
most sensible manner in which to monitor the devices in your network.
When 3Com Network Director is operating in this mode the
Monitor
Core Devices and Links pane is displayed as follows:
