3343.0. "Probewatch and IP Node Names" by SCASS1::DAVIES (Mark, NPB Sales, Dallas,TX) Sat Mar 09 1996 12:51

    My customer is looking at PROBEwatch.  He wants to monitor ethernet
    segments.  His question:
    
    1. Does PROBEwatch and our h/w probes show IP staions by MAC address
       only, or do they also display IP address and/or IP node name?
    
    Thanks,

    You can configure whether the MAC address or network address is displayed
    in the install screen of the PROBEwatch Domain Manager.

    But you should use V2.6 Firmware of Packetprobe90 to get IP adresses.

Is there any plan to add support for Node Names by having PROBEwatch go out 
and access a BIND server and retrieve them?

Thanks,

Mark
