8.2 Disabling the network monitor

Disable the network monitor if the network monitoring of a specific network segment is not needed or if you want to stop monitoring a network.

To disable the network monitor:

  1. Display the Inventory module.

  2. In Device Inventory in the menu area, select the desired network segment group from Network List.

  3. In the information area, select a computer for which the network monitor is enabled.

    The management type of the computer for which the network monitor is enabled is displayed as [Figure] , [Figure] , or [Figure].

  4. In Action, select Disable Network Access Control.

The network monitor for the selected computer is disabled, and the network is no longer monitored.

Tip

Disabling the network monitor uninstalls the network monitor agent from the computer.

If the network monitor is disabled, the management type changes back to [Figure] , [Figure] , or [Figure].

The network monitor cannot be disabled if the operation status of the network monitor displayed in the menu area is Stopped management.

Important

If the operation status of a computer on which the network monitor agent is installed is Stopped management or Failed to stop management, the computer cannot be excluded.

Important

A component (a network monitor agent) must be registered on the management server to disable the network monitor.

Important

In a multi-server configuration, you can disable the network monitor only for the computers immediately under the local server.

Tip

You can also disable the network monitor by selecting Network Access Control and then Assign Network Access Control Settings in the Settings module, and then using the Assign Network Access Control Settings view.

Tip

If a computer for which the network monitor is disabled belongs to multiple network segments, the network monitor is disabled on all of the network segments.

Tip

If a computer has the network monitor agent installed and cannot connect to the management server, you can disable the network monitor by selecting and deleting JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Network Monitor from Programs and Features in the Windows Control Panel on the computer. If you want to disable the network monitor in this way, you must follow the instructions in the operations window for disabling it, and then change the information on the management server (that is, the management type of the target computer).
