Re: DNS, CiscoWorks and HP NNM [7:65308]
My experience with Tivoli NetView was that if the different interfaces had different names, then I got multiple router objects, each with some of the interfaces of the router. If you use QIP for DNS you can place the interface IPs in a 'router group'. Reverse lookups will get the same (router group) name for each address. Forward lookups can be whatever you want.

add all the interfaces for each router into the host file or dns serverfor examle: 10.1.1.1uk_router 12.5.4.2uk_router ! ! nnm 6.2 must be able to resolve every ip address to a hostname or it will fall behind in polling. there are several work arounds including a whitepaper that comes with installing a particular patch regards, Tunde - Original Message - From: Ants To: Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 3:19 PM Subject: DNS, CiscoWorks and HP NNM [7:65308] Hi, We're looking to implement NNM6.x soon.. and have a question re.

Hi, We're looking to implement NNM6.x soon.. and have a question re. DNS and cisco ip addresses.. How will DNS be setup to resolve a router with multiple IP adresses? ie. one netbios name and multiple IP's? will it prioritise? thanks in advance. Why would a router have a NetBIOS name?? And what do you mean by prioritize? Are you asking if it will prefer one IP address over the others? My recommendation--if it doesn't conflict with other issues within your network--is to configure a loopback address on your routers and use that for DNS resolution. In the past we had all interfaces in DNS but this caused some issues with NNM and it really didn't benefit us. So, we streamlined our DNS and all are happy. The best place for a question like this is the OpenView forum. If you're going to be running NNM you really need to join that forum and get on their mailing list. Go to www.ovforum.org for more details. You can also search their archives for more information about NNM and DNS.
