5 Discovery

Overview

In the Monitoring → Discovery section results of network discovery are shown. Discovered devices are sorted by the discovery rule.

If a device is already monitored, the host name will be listed in the Monitored host column, and the duration of the device being discovered or lost after previous discovery is shown in the Uptime/Downtime column.

After that follow the columns showing the state of individual services for each discovered device (red cells show services that are down). Service uptime or downtime is included within the cell.

Only those services that have been found on at least one device will have a column showing their state.

Buttons

View mode buttons being common for all sections are described on the Monitoring page.

Using filter

You can use the filter to display only the discovery rules you are interested in. For better search performance, data is searched with macros unresolved.

With nothing selected in the filter, all enabled discovery rules are displayed. To select a specific discovery rule for display, start typing its name in the filter. All matching enabled discovery rules will be listed for selection. More than one discovery rule can be selected.
