You can change discovery settings at any time either through the Setup Wizard (Settings icon –> Setup –> Setup Wizard) or through individual Settings pages (such as Settings icon –> Setup –> Discovery Settings). You can also flexibly define discovery blackouts at the network, discovery range, device group, and device level to prevent discovery protocols and traffic from occupying network bandwidth at inopportune times, such as latency-sensitive trading or video applications operating during daytime hours. For information, see Configuring Network Discovery Settings and Defining Blackout Periods. |
To perform network discovery, you use several fundamental tools: Network Views, Scan Interfaces, Discovery Settings, and SNMP/CLI credentials.
