Setting the Polling Intervals
By setting the polling intervals you can determine how often the following fields
and status indicators are updated in your hub view window: contact status icon,
device uptime, time, date, device name, device location, IP Address, MAC
Address, port status indicators and statistics windows. You can set different
polling intervals for each of the five polling groupings. This enables you to reduce
traffic on your network by setting a high polling interval for the information that
usually remains constant (e.g., Device General Status) and a low interval for one
that is changing more frequently (e.g., Statistics).
To set the polling intervals used by SPMA:
1. Click on to display the Device menu.
2. Drag down to Polling Intervals, and release.
