Only monitor switches maintenance port, How ?

Question

Hi

NPM 9.1.  My Orion-SL500 (500 interfaces/elements license) has been quickly consumed during initila network discovery. I have only one router but many switches.

Is there an AUTOMATED way to tell NPM to only consider maintenance port on each switch without counting all switch port.

Even "Active only" interfaces exceeds license "500". no budget to incerate liecense.

Thank you

If your management ports have consistently different names from the user ports, you can do it in web node management via the search function.
