Discovering a List of IPs and/or Subnets
Discover a list of IP addresses and/or subnets by creating a discovery profile, a text file listing the IP/
subnet values, and then executing the discovery profile using the Execute With File menu option.
The steps in this section assume that you already have a text file (.txt) listing each IP address, IP
range, or subnet on a single line. For example:
10.100.4.5
10.100.4.6
10.100.4.7
...
10.100.4.130 - 10.100.4.150
...
10.100.6.17
10.100.6.30 - 10.100.6.35
10.100.6.128/25
If you do not have the text file, create it before getting started.
Discover a list of IPs/subnets from the Discovery Profiles portlet as follows.
1
