How do I disable polling for a device or specific elements in a device?
You should unmanage the device if you want to disable polling for all elements in a device, or if you want to disable polling for a group of devices. To disable polling for only certain elements in a device (such as ports), select the specific element and right-click Unmanage. (Be sure to select Inventory > Reconfigure and Inventory > Save Inventory when you are done.) You can also disable ICMP/connectivity polling (without disabling SNMP/availability polling) if you have installed the latest DFM IDU (from http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cw2000-dfm).
