You either need this one or poller 2 running. Do not run none, do not
run both; just one of them.
This poller forks out multiple children after waiting a certain amount
of time, while the other pre-forks out a specified number of children
and just feeds them jobs when they are done.

For small instalations, it doesn't matter.  For large poller2 is better
but it is best to try both as some people are getting better performance
from the old poller.

Basically my comments for the poller are the same for this one too. The 
main difference being that it doesn't matter nearly as much which one
you use.

Yes.

It tries to discover hosts on your network.  I personally do not use
that, but any host that we want to monitor goes through an activation
process.

dont use

You don't say what platform you are running it on, or how many interfaces 
and hosts you have.
