The Device Mapping page enables you to map a SevOne device to a flow device.
To access the Device Mapping page from the navigation bar, click the Administration menu, select Flow Configuration, and then select Device Mapping.
Users have access to view devices to which the user has permissions. To give a user permissions to view a flow device, the user should be granted Device View access to a SevOne device that is mapped to this flow device via device mapping relation.
The list displays the mapping relationship between a device and its corresponding flow device.
Device - Displays the name of the SevOne device.
Flow Device - Displays the name of the device that contains the interface that sends flow data to SevOne NMS.
Allow - Displays if the map between SevOne device and flow device is possible. If it is set to No then, no mapping is going to be applied by SevOne discovery. You may edit this field by Add/Edit Device Mapping pop-up.
Automatic - Displays if the mapping is done manually or by SevOne discovery. This field is not editable.
The Add/Edit Device Mapping pop-up contains three sections. The SevOne Device section enables you to select the SevOne device to which to map the flow device. The Flow Device section enables you to select the flow device. The Allow mapping section allows you to manually map the SevOne device with the flow device.
Leave 'Allow Mapping' unchecked if the SevOne device should not map to the flow device even if they have the same IP address in SevOne NMS.
