Exclude IP List

By default, Resolve Insights tries to discover all devices within your network. You can exclude unwanted assets from being discovered based on various criteria.

Exclude IP/s

Using the Exclude IP List option, you can exclude one or more IPv4 or IPv6 addresses from the discovery schedule.

1. Navigate to Discovery > Exclude IP List
2. Click + Exclude IP/s
3. Select the type of IP pool from the drop-down list and enter the applicable fields
   • Range - Enter from-to range of IPs to be excluded. Use the plus (+) button to add multiple IP ranges.
   • Subnet - Enter an IP and mask of the subnet to be excluded. Use the plus (+) button to add multiple IP subnets.
   • IP - Enter comma separated list of IPv4 and/or IPv6 to be excluded.
4. Click Save

The IPs are added to the exclude list for the selected site and will not be scanned during the next device discovery process, scheduled for the particular site.

Remove IP/s from the exclude list

1. Navigate to Discovery > Exclude IP List
2. Take one of the following actions:
   • To remove a single IP record from the exclude list, click the Delete (trashbin) icon under the Actions column in the row of the IP record that you want.
   • To remove multiple IP records from the exclude list, check the boxes in the rows of all the records that you want to delete and then click the Delete button.

The IPs will be removed from the exclude list and will be scanned again during the next device discovery process, scheduled for the particular site.

Disable Disk discovery

You can disable the discovery of Disk-type devices. Disks are discoverable by default.

To disable the discovery of Disk-type devices, take the following steps on each DC node in your cluster:

1. Log in to the node as root.
2. Open /opt/meridian/dc/var/fsdc/conf/netra.conf for editing. Replace /opt/meridian with your actual installation path.
3. Set disable-disk_discovery to True.
4. Restart the meridian service:

   service meridian-dc stop
   service meridian-dc start
