Network Discovery
Making changes to Network Property Groups
You are unlikely to need to know how to create, modify, or delete Network
Property Groups. The default Network Property Groups will almost certainly
meet your needs, but if they don’t, here are the instructions.
Note: If a Property Group has been altered, the shortcut menu of “add”,
“modify”, and “delete” has an additional entry, “Reset to default”.

Modify a Network Property Group

Modify a Network Property Group
1Click Administration > Network configuration > Network Property
Groups > Modify a Network Property Group.
2Select the Network Property Group you want to modify.
3For each parameter, click On or Off or Inherit.
4Click Submit.
Passive Discovery Network Discovery does not actively
look for devices, but will include them if
it happens to find them. (For example,
Network Discovery may be able to
gather the information from the ARP
cache of a device.)
Restrict to scanned-only For IPv4 ranges where there are only
devices that should be found by
Peregrine Desktop Discovery (PDI).
Remove Address Used for removing IP addresses from the
device model.
All off The least active of the default Property
Groups. For use when it’s easier to turn a
range off than to delete it.
