To enable, disable, or delete a discovery rule

Before you begin

When a discovery rule is enabled, the network is scanned according to the discovery rule when the discovery rule is saved or rescanned. The network is also scanned according to the discovery rule as specified by the Discovery Rule Scan Interval parameter in the Mediation form. If your discovery rule is disabled, the network is not scanned as specified by these conditions.

When you delete a discovery rule, only the rule is removed. The NEs discovered using the rule are not removed from the NFM-P, but the Discovery Rule ID for each of the NEs set to 0.

Steps
 

Choose Administration→Discovery Manager from the main menu. The Discovery Manager (Edit) form opens.


Select a discovery rule and click Turn Up to enable the rule, Shut Down to disable the rule, or Delete to delete the rule.


Close the form.
