STATUS POLLING
Status polling starts as soon as discovery starts or NMS has even one
device in its database. When the Discovery process is complete, NMS
continues to monitor the status of each device in the network using the
Status Polling to give you the real-time status of each device and how it is
visually represented in the Mapping option, you can determine the status
of a device through its background color whether it is on a clear
background which means that the device is in a “Good” state, yellow if it is
on “Warning” state or red if the device is “Unreachable.” Each Status Polling
generates trap information and these are shown in the Event Viewer
option.
You can set the time interval of the Status Polling using the Preferences
option.
