Understanding polling groups, threshold groups, and settings

Using the Polling and Thresholds Console, you can customize the SNMP polling and CLI polling for Network Protocol Manager by modifying default polling groups, or by creating new polling groups. The polling groups periodically poll the managed routing-enabled routers to collect protocol session (adjacency) availability data.

Using the Polling and Thresholds Console, you can also customize the polling thresholds for Network Protocol Manager by modifying default threshold groups, or by creating new threshold groups.

Network Protocol Manager uses the settings in a polling or threshold group to assign parameters to the group.
