Snmp/Http Scanning; Adding Networks For Snmp/Http Scanning - Dell PowerConnect W-AirWave 7.6 User Manual

SNMP/HTTP Scanning

SNMP/HTTP discovery scanning is the primary method for discovering devices on your network, including rogue
devices. Enable this scanning method from the Device Setup > Discover page.
NOTE: This page is only visible to users with the AirWave Administrator role or roles that have Allow authorization of APs/Devices
enabled in AMP Setup > Roles.
SNMP/HTTP scanning information is provided in these sections:

Adding Networks for SNMP/HTTP Scanning

The first step when enabling SNMP/HTTP scanning for devices is to define the network segments to be scanned.
Perform these steps.
1. Go to the Device Setup > Discover page, and scroll down to the Networks section.
2. In the Networks section, select the Add button to add a new scan network. The Scan Network page appears, as
shown in Figure
you can edit an existing scan network by selecting the corresponding pencil icon. The New/Edit Networks page
also appears in this instance.

3. In the Name field, provide a name for the network to be scanned (for example, Accounting Network).
4. In the Network field, define the IP network range, or the first IP address on the network, to be scanned. One
example would be 10.52.0.0.
5. Enter the Subnet Mask for the network to be scanned (for example, 255.255.252.0). The largest subnet AirWave
supports is 255.255.0.0.
6. Select Add.
7. Repeat these steps to add as many networks for which to enable device scanning. All network segments
configured in this way appear in the Network section of the Device Setup > Discover page.
8. Complete the configuration of scan credentials, then combine scan networks and scan credentials to create scan
sets. The next two procedures in this section describe these tasks.
