Network Discovery
To merge IPv4 ranges
1 Administration > Network configuration > Merge IPv4 ranges.
Network Discovery displays all adjacent ranges sharing identical properties
along with what the results of merge will be.
2 Click Merge.
You have merged any adjacent identical IPv4 ranges in your proposed new
configuration.
Property Groups
Network Discovery comes with default property groups you can apply to the
IPv4 ranges you set up. A property group contains characteristics or properties
that distinguish a range from other ranges, especially from its parent range. You
can also modify the default Property Groups and create new ones.
There are four kinds of property groups:
Network—for properties that govern network discovery
Community—for community strings
Scanner—for Scanner deployment
Listener—for Listener deployment
Note: To set up Scanner and Listener Property Groups, see Using Network
Discovery with Desktop Inventory and Desktop Administration.
Network Property Groups
It is unlikely you will want to modify the default Network Property Groups or
create new ones. The defaults will probably be sufficient.
