Polling (IP address/DNS name)

Polling (IP address/DNS name)

OpManager allows you to choose the polling method for the discovered devices - IP Address or DNS Name. By
default, the IP Address is selected. If you choose DNS Name, the device's IP address is updated every 6 hours.

There are two ways to change the settings:

How to change the device individually

  1. Click on the Device in the Inventory → Go to the Device Summary page.
  2. Click the “Hamburger Icon” icon in the top right corner of the page.
  3. Click [Edit device information].
  4. In Polling, select either IP Address or DNS.
  5. Click Save.

How to change the default

  1. Go to Settings → Monitoring → Monitoring Settings
  2. Under general, check either the IP address or DNS in Polling.
  3. Click Save.

Changing the defaults only applies to devices discovered after the change -
polling settings for devices discovered before the default change must be changed individually.
