Network discovery view

About

This view lists all network-connected devices found from the subnets of organization network by Miradore network discovery. The network discovery tool automatically scans all subnets that have the feature enabled on regular basis, thus keeping the hardware inventory information constantly up-to-date. In addition to automated scans, the network discovery can be initiated manually using the Subnets view.

Additionally, the view displays which devices have Miradore client installed and provides tools for performing a remote installation of Miradore client into the devices that are not managed with Miradore.

Tools > Install Miradore client

Installs Miradore client to the selected devices.

In the popup which opens, you can select which user account and client deployer should be used to install the client.

In addition, there is a check box  "Prefer IP over device name". When this is selected, the client installation uses IP address for connecting to the device. This is useful, for example, if there is many devices with the same device name in the Miradore instance, or if the device name has been changed recently.

The client installation status can be seen from Miradore client installations view (Operations > Software management > Installation status > Miradore client installations).
