You will need to make the router a parent of the hosts you want attached to it.

You can just add the following line to the child hosts:

Code: Select all

    parents    <router hostname>
to make the router their parent. Bear in mind this will not only place them behind the router on the map, but if the router goes down the hosts will be shown as unreachable.

Would you like us to keep this thread open while you test this out? Otherwise we will be closing it.
