Specify IP Range for DNS discovery


HPOM provides dynamic discovery of Windows and UNIX nodes in your enterprise environment and displays their names in a list of discovered domains in the Configure Managed Nodes dialog box. Click the + sign beside any domain name in the DNS folder to expand the list and see the nodes it contains.

You can create a new list of nodes by specifying a range of IP addresses to be included in the list.

  3. In the Name box, enter a name to identify the range of IP addresses you are creating, as you want it to appear in the Discovered Nodes list.
  4. In the Enter the Range of IP Addresses to Include boxes, enter a range of IP addresses. Only nodes with the specified IP addresses will appear in the Discovered Nodes list when the item is expanded.
  5. Click OK to confirm your changes and close this dialog box.

To edit the IP range
