Note

This step is present during initial NetMRI setup. It does not appear after NetMRI is successfully configured and the wizard subsequently accessed via the Settings icon –>  icon > Setup –>  > Setup Wizard.

The primary administrative account is used by the NetMRI administrator to create user accounts and configure NetMRI. This account's user name and password are also required to access the administrative shell (a command-line interface). Other NetMRI users do not have the special privileges available to the administrator. The administrator account is the "superuser" account in the NetMRI appliance.

  • A CIDR address block is defined by a network address and bit mask (for example 192.168.1.0/24).
  • An IP address range defines a start and ending IP address. For instance, you could define 192.168.1.0 as the start of the IP range and 192.168.1.255 as the end of the IP range.
  • An IP address wildcard pattern defines a single IP address range using a wildcard character or range for a specific set of octets. For example, you could define either 192.168.1.* or 192.168.1.0-255 as the IP address wildcard pattern. An IP address wildcard pattern can substitute an asterisk or range for any single octet in the definition.
  • A desired set of values can also be imported from a *.CSV file.
  • Every discovery range must be associated with a network view. For more information, see Configuring Network Views.

Ranges included in discovery indicate that any device found matching that range is discovered and managed by NetMRI. Ranges excluded for discovery indicate that any device found matching that range is excluded from discovery. Ranges marked Exclude from Management indicate that any device found matching that range is discovered, but NetMRI will not manage/collect data from the device.
