How does NeuTrans do network discovery?
NeuTrans discovers network devices using two methods, based on whether or not the device support the Common Open Policy System (COPS). For COPS compliant devices, the device itself initiates communication with the Policy Server. Non-COPS devices are discovered via the SNMP. The system administrator enters one or more SNMP community strings into the Policy Console, and discovery of devices is based on matched community strings.
