Checking connectivity

Use reports and topology views to check for missing connections between devices.

1. Click the Reporting icon and select Common Reporting. Within the widget, select Network Manager. A list of folders display. These folders contain all Cognos reports for your access.
2. Click Troubleshooting Reports.
3. Select the Devices with no connections report.
   The report displays a list of devices for which connectivity was not discovered properly.
4. For each device in the list, try to resolve the problem by doing one of the following:
   • Ensure that Network Manager has been added to the access control list for the device.
   • Check that all the appropriate discovery agents were configured.
   • Check whether the device that you expected to be connected is out of scope.

   Another possible reason for missing connectivity is that the device that you expected to be connected was not discovered due to incorrect seeding of the discovery. In the case of the discovery configuration that was configured earlier, that should not be a problem because you configured ping sweeping on all of the scopes, so each device in scope was individually pinged. However, this is another area to investigate if you configured individual device seeds
