Step 2.2: Parts of Network to Discover

Limit layer 3 discovery

Select this option if you want to limit the scope of network discovery to a

to <n> hops

specified number of hops (routers) on network paths.

 

 

Include network

Select this option if you want to scan ranges of network addresses greater

address ranges larger

than 512 in search of layer 2 devices. Discovery time may increase

than 512

significantly if you select this option.

 

 

Step 3: SNMP Read Community Strings

Read Community strings are used to retrieve SNMP data from the customer network. Without the community strings we cannot retrieve retrieve performance criteria (CPU, interface) from devices.

If your customer does not want to give you the community strings, a workaround is to ask the customer to create temporary Read community strings that expire or will be deleted when ELAT has concluded data collection. Once the community strings expire or are deleted, the community strings in the dataset will no longer be valid and will not compromise the customer’s network. We recommend "public" or "Avaya" as the Read community strings. Please have the customer verify that the community strings will expire after data collection has concluded.
