Network Discovery
The Discovery module now supports scheduled discovery. Now, you can log into WMS and trigger the
discovery process to automatically discover devices using a planned discovery interval.
Use the Network Discovery screen to create the search criteria used in the device detection process, then
conduct a search.
The Discovery screen is partitioned into tabs supporting the following:
● IP Ranges on page 145
● SNMP Profiles on page 153
IP Ranges
Refer to the IP Range tab (displayed by default) for discovering devices. Each IP range uses an
associated SNMP profile to discover devices. Existing IP ranges can be viewed in detail, modified,
deleted, imported or exported as required to keep the pool of available profiles current and relevant.
CAUTION
The user must discover an access point separately to conduct configuration management and firmware
enhancements. When you initially discover a controller with an access point associated to it, the access point will
display as usual within the My Networks menu. However, you cannot conduct configuration and firmware
enhancements. You must discover the access point again. The access point will display in the network tree a second
time, but you can now conduct configuration and firmware updates on the access point with the specified IP
address.
To review the networks detected by WMS thus far:
1 Select Network Discovery from the Administration menu.
The IP Range tab displays by default.
