How much overhead does ForeCast Managers polling generate on the elements/devices being polled?
Each polled element requires from 1 to 8 SNMP object identifiers (OIDs) to complete the request. These OIDs will typically be sent in one SNMP GET and will result in overhead of less than 0.07% for a device element.
