Scan as configured for scheduled scan Tip! This scan uses the settings you specify on the Network Scan page.From the drop-down list, select a scan option:.At the top-right of the Network Discovery page, click Scan Now.To run an on-demand scan from the Network Discovery page: To schedule a scan, configure the Network Scan settings, which specify the interfaces that are included in the scan and at what frequency the scan runs.įor more information about how to configure scheduled scan settings or run an on-demand scan from the Network Scan page, see Network Discovery. UDP and Service Version phase - Finds the UDP port and services versions.TCP and OS phase - Finds more detailed information, such as the TCP port and the OS on the device.Quick Host discovery phase - Finds basic information about each device to organize the interfaces and connected devices in the map.On-demand scans take longer to complete than scheduled scans. Scan times can vary based on network conditions, which can include the size of your network, how many hosts are active, and how many services are enabled.
You can schedule a scan to run automatically, or run an on-demand scan. To see the devices on your network, if you are logged in to your Firebox with Device Administrator credentials, you can run a scan that finds all the devices connected to your network.
If there are distant network connections to your network, they appear at the last level, behind a device, and appear as a dotted line, which indicates that there could be more than one connection between the device directly connected to you network and the endpoints. The connections between interfaces, subnets, and devices are indicated by the branch lines of the tree map. Interfaces are on the first level, subnets are on the second level, and devices are on the third level. The Network Map is organized by interface, in a tree map. To help minimize the performance impact on your Firebox, we recommend that you configure the Network Discovery Scan settings to only scan the networks that you must monitor. Make sure to only enable the Network Discovery feature if you plan to use it. This could noticeably affect the performance of your Firebox, particularly if you have a large network. When you enable the Network Discovery feature on your Firebox, the process load increases and consumes additional memory. Network Discovery is only supported on Firebox M Series, T Series, FireboxV, and XTMv devices. Device type (for devices found by Mobile Security).You can see this detailed information for each connected device: If your Firebox runs Fireware OS v11.11 or higher and includes an active subscription to the Network Discovery feature in the feature key, on the Dashboard > Network Discovery page, you can see a tree map view of all the devices on your network that are connected to the interfaces on your Firebox.
