Network Discovery

To merge IPv4 ranges

1

Administration > Network configuration > Merge IPv4 ranges.

Network Discovery displays all adjacent ranges sharing identical properties
along with what the results of merge will be.

2

Click Merge.

You have merged any adjacent identical IPv4 ranges in your proposed new
configuration.

Property Groups

Network Discovery comes with default property groups you can apply to the
IPv4 ranges you set up. A property group contains characteristics or properties
that distinguish a range from other ranges, especially from its parent range. You
can also modify the default Property Groups and create new ones.

There are four kinds of property groups:

„

Network—for properties that govern network discovery

„

Community—for community strings

„

Scanner—for Scanner deployment

„

Listener—for Listener deployment

Note:

To set up Scanner and Listener Property Groups, see Using Network
Discovery with Desktop Inventory and Desktop Administration
.

Network Property Groups

It is unlikely you will want to modify the default Network Property Groups or
create new ones. The defaults will probably be sufficient.
