IP Object identifier filters

The object identifier (OID) filter allows you to select which product types to include or exclude from discovery.

If you add a third-party product OID to the Included Product Types list during discovery and later move it to the Excluded Product Types list, note that you will not be able to discover a new device with that product OID. However, other functionality such as traps, fault management, statistics, performance data collection, product polling for health monitoring and so on continue to run as with any other discovered product.
