Storing SNMP credentials as a string within a switch's discovery profile table (SNMP table) can
compromise switch security. Therefore, when Start Discovery is selected, the switch prompts the user
to verify their SNMP credentials against the SNMP credentials of discovered devices. SNMP v2 and
v3 credentials must be verified before the switch displays discovered devices within the Recently
Found Devices table.
If SNMP v2 is used with a discovering profile, a
Community String entered is required to match the name used by the remote network management
software of the discovered switch.

search for available network devices is conducted.
Displays the ending numeric (non DNS) IP address from where the
search for available network devices is conducted.
