Modify the CDP Discovery Schedule

To modify the default discovery schedule, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Select Devices > Discover > DISCOVER.

Step 2 In the Discovery Wizard, select CDP Discovery and click Next.

Step 3 Select Modify Periodic and click Next.

Step 4 To modify the schedule:

a.Select the Start Date and Start Time from the pull-down lists.

b.To repeat discovery at a specified interval, select Enable. Then enter a number and select the interval from the pull-down list.

c.Click Next.

Step 5 If you already added community strings, click Next.

If you have not added community strings, you must add them now. For details on adding community strings, see Enter SNMP Community Strings for All Managed Devices, page 4-25. After adding community strings, click Next.

Step 6 Add one or more initiating IP addresses (seeds):

Note If CDP is not enabled, you still can discover devices by entering each of their IP addresses as seeds in this window, however the connectivity between switches and access points will not be discovered.

a.Enter the IP addresses or device names in the Add Seed Values text box and click >>.

b.Set the CDP distance. If the distance is set to 1, only the immediate neighbors of the seed devices are discovered. Set the distance appropriately to discover the entire wireless network.

 

 

 

Note Routers and switches that do not have access points attached to them

 

 

 

are used when computing CDP distance. However, such devices will

 

 

 

not appear in the discovered devices list.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 7

Click Next.

 

 

Step 8

Click Finish to submit your changes. Discovery will begin at the scheduled time.
