I installed it yesterday and let it run over night. Entire network didn't get many of the machines that are pingable from the host server's location.

I went into Configuration > Network Discovery and added all the vLANs I wanted it to check then turned off the "NetXMS Core" service when it wouldn't start poling the machines. I waited over an hour and it didn't add any machines out of the 10.2.x.x vLAN.

So I added 7 "seed" nodes in the vLANs I wanted it to discover.(That are also within the network discovery tab IP range) It still has not added any more machines within those vLANs after almost 2 hours. I verified that other machines on those vLANs can be pinged from the NetXMS server as well.

What am I missing here?

Is there some way to do a IP Scan and then add any machines found in that scan to NetXMS? (Or am I trying to re-invent the wheel here...) I just don't want to manually add all the devices.

Hi!

You can turn on "active discovery" in network discovery configuration and add subnets you want to scan into "active discovery target" list. Regarding non-working discovery in first post - can you please share screenshot of your network discovery configuration?

Best regards,
Victor

I already had active turned on and the subnets input, but that's not getting the IP addresses to show up. That's why I was hoping for something like an IP scanner so I could put a range in rather than individually. But I guess that's what the "active" part of the network discovery is suppose to do. Anyway, here is your SS.
