Title: Bulk Node Creation
Post by: tricer on February 09, 2017, 08:55:33 PM
Is there a way to scan a subnet and add all devices on that subnet? We have several subnets and not sure the built in network discovery is the way we want to go.

Hi!

It is possible to specify an address filter in Network Discovery so that it would only scan the necessary subnet you wish to add. You can configure the filter by opening Network Discovery under the Configuration tab in the console and then on the bottom right you will see a section called Address Filters, there you can press Add and specify the address range of the subnet you will be adding.

More on this topic can be found in our administrator guide: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/network-discovery.html#address-filters (https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/network-discovery.html#address-filters).

Hope this helps!

As you have selected Passive network discovery only, you do not need to set anything in the Active Discovery Targets section, but otherwise it looks correct.
