    What is the frequency of polling devices in NFA?

    I suggest to read the NFA Administrator Guide, where you will be able to understand how device polling and discovery works.

    Polling is normally every 24 hours from the harvester. Certain conditions can cause the harvester to rediscover a router and you can rediscover a router manually.

    Polling takes place under the following conditions:

     

     

    -The Harvester hasn’t seen flows from the router before (in other words, a newly added router)

     

     

    -The Harvester sees a flow from an interface that it has not previously seen (such as when a new interface is added to the router)

     

     

    -The router has rebooted (according to SysUpTime)

     

     

    -Every 24 hours after the last poll
