Feature Description

As of NMIS 8.6.2a user defined polling polices may be configured.  This provides users with the ability to assign a unique polling policy to a node.  Users are able to select the following attributes when configuring a polling policy.

• ICMP/Ping frequency
• SNMP Polling frequency
• WMI polling frequency

The available time options for each attribute follow:

• 1 minute
• 2 mintues
• 5 minutes
• 15 minutes
• 30 minutes
• 1 hour
• 6 hours
• 1 day

Chris thought:  It would be cool if they could assign a polling policy to a group.

Configuration

Configure a Polling Policy

From the NMIS8 home dashboard using the top menu bar navigate to System -> System Configuration -> Polling Policy.  This will render a 'Polling Policy' window.  From this this window polling polices may be added, viewed and deleted.
