Discovery (R9.4) - 29 December 2016

New Features

Discovery

DISMON-1082

You can now scan across subnets. An agent does not have to be part of the same subnet range being scanned by Discovery.

Discovery

DISMON-1086

A new 'Harvest Networks' wizard on the Discovery > By Networks page enables users to create networks based on the connection gateway information provided by existing agents.

Discovery

DISMON-1087

Added three new virtual machine labels to machine filter View Definitions.

  • Virtual Machine Hyper-V
  • Virtual Machine Other
  • Virtual Machine VMWare

Discovery

DISMON-1147

Additional NMAP host discovery options and inventory scanning options were included to improve the reliability of host discovery and inventory results. This has increased the time it takes to perform each scan.

Discovery

DISMON-1187

Added a new "Promote 'unknown' devices to assets" checkbox to the Discovery > Networks > By Networks > Asset Promotion tab. When scanning does not return a host name for a discovered device, Discovery assigns the device a display name starting with the string 'unknown' on the Discovered Devices page. With this enhancement, by default discovered devices identified as 'unknown' are not, by default, promoted to assets, even if asset types are set to promote them. If you wish to promote unknown devices to assets, then check this checkbox. This setting is applied to the entire network, across all device types.

Added validation to prevent accepting an inverted scan range segment. For example, 192.168.1.15-5 is invalid.
