Discovering devices on your network

Use device Discovery to identify devices that are connected to your network and to retrieve information about those devices.

Use Discovery Results to label devices or add devices to inventory.

About Device Discovery and device management

About Device Discovery and device management

Devices that can be discovered include laptops, desktops, servers, mobile devices, virtual devices, printers, network devices, wireless access points, routers, switches and more.

These devices can be discovered even if they do not have the KACE Agent installed on them. You can run Discovery scans on-demand or schedule scans to run at specific times.

Discovery Results show the availability and details of devices. After devices are discovered, you can add devices to inventory by:

•
Installing the KACE Agent on devices. The KACE Agent can be installed on Windows, Mac®, Red Hat®, SUSE®, and Ubuntu® devices. See Provisioning the KACE Agent.
•
Enabling Agentless management for devices. Agentless management is especially useful for devices that cannot have the KACE Agent installed, such as devices with unsupported operating systems. See Managing Agentless devices.

Tracking changes to Discovery settings

If History subscriptions are configured to retain information, you can view the details of the changes made to settings, assets, and objects.

This information includes the date the change was made and the user who made the change, which can be useful during troubleshooting. See About history settings.

To discover devices, you can scan your network by creating a Discovery Schedule. The Discovery Schedule specifies the protocols to use during the scan, the IP Address range to be scanned, and the frequency of the scan.

Depending on what you want out of a discovery scan and what devices you are working with, you can choose from various Discovery types.

•
Quick "what and where" Discovery: See Add a Discovery Schedule to perform a quick "what and where" scan of your network.
•
Thorough Discovery: You can use this type of discovery to get more device information than what is available from the "what and where" type. See Add a Discovery Schedule for a thorough scan of managed Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX computers.
•
External Integration Discovery: A different type of thorough discovery that is aimed at certain computer devices that are not Windows-, Mac Os X-, or Linux-based. For more information, see:
◦
Add a Discovery Schedule for a KACE Cloud Mobile Device Manager device
◦
Add a Discovery Schedule for a Google Workspace device
◦
Add a Discovery Schedule for an Workspace ONE device
•
Non-computer Discovery: See Add a Discovery Schedule for SNMP-enabled non-computer devices.

You can scan for devices across a single subnet or multiple subnets. You can also define a scan to search for devices listening on a particular port.

When adding Discovery Schedules, you should balance the scope of the scan (the number of IP addresses you are scanning) with the depth of the probe (the number of attributes you are scanning), so that you do not overwhelm the network or the appliance. For example, if you need to scan a large number of IP addresses frequently, keep the number of ports, TCP/IP connections, and so on, relatively small. As a rule, scan a particular subnet no more than once every few hours.
