How is it possible to check if one or multiple IPs are part of one or multiple Discovery Schedules?
Use cases
- Use Case 1 : As a Discovery Administrator, I would like to know if a list of IP associated to servers should be discovered,
- The process of checking one by one IPs is very long.
- Some customers have thousands of IP Ranges defined
- The process of checking one by one IPs is very long.
- Use Case 2 : As a Discovery Administrator, I would like to know if an IP might be associated to different Discovery Schedules.
- Also can be used to know if IPs are covered before deactivating a specific Discovery Schedule
Limitations
- Doesn't support exclusions
- It is possible to exclude specific IPs, in the Discovery Schedule, on the MID or globally
How to Install
- Deploy the attached Update Set (Import XML, and Commit Retrieved Update Set)
How to Use
- Use the UI Page (acces it and use Try)
- I didn't create a menu, as it should be reserved to admin users.
- However you can create the menu, or a favorite to the page
- I didn't create a menu, as it should be reserved to admin users.
- Paste one or multiple IPs
- Click on "Search Ips"
Example of result
