To add an IP address to the list of nodes that are monitored, type ADD in the COMMAND field.
Tip
You can delete an IP address from the list, by typing DEL in the COMMAND field.
In the IP Address field, type the IP address of the node that you want to monitor.
Tip
If you know the host name but not the IP address you can type the host name in the Host Name field. When defining the SNMP parameters, you can add or delete the host name or the IP address.
Press Enter.
