This dialog box also allows you to select whether Traffix Manager starts
automatically every time you log on to your machine.

Default DNS Domain

Allows you to set a default DNS domain, if you wish to change the
previously configured default. You can specify a default domain to be
used for devices discovered on your local network when the DNS lookup
does not return fully-qualified local names.

For example, if the default DNS domain is

acme.com

and a device resolves

as

fred

, it will be given the DNS name

fred.acme.com

. This can be useful

when using the DNS grouping. See

Chapter 4

,

“Grouping Network

Devices in the Map”

for more information.

Before Deinstalling

Before deinstalling Traffix Manager, ensure you complete the following

wish to keep a copy of the directory which contains all the data you
have collected. You may also wish to keep a copy of the directory
which contains Traffix Manager configuration files — the SubnetsDB
file and the AttlookupDB file. You can find these files in

<install>\traffix\config

.

Save any attribute lookup programs that you have written. See
