How can i discover devices via Device Discovery?

Solved1.14K views5th July 2023

Marian Bacana155 15th May 2023 0 Comments

Hello,

I am trying to add multiple units or AppearTV using the Device Discovery option. I have included the IP Address range where the devices are located. I am able to ping them from the DMA server so connectivity is good.

If i try to configure "Device type" to Protocol Specific, there is no way to select the protocol i need (AppearTV in my case).

I tried to do it like this and i ended waiting more than 20 minutes for 10 scanned IPs. Nothing returned, i just had the "Discovery in progress..." message.

I also tried to use the other option "Generic" from "Device type", checking the Ping and SNMP options but i had nothing returned.

Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks !

Hi Marian,

Nice to meet you!

  • The Device Discovery wizard requires a network discovery element using the Production version of the connector Skyline IP Network Discovery.
  • Alternatively, advanced element discovery and provisioning is possible with the IDP app. See DataMiner IDP app.

I would say that these days, we recommend people to use IDP, as discovery is just a part of the process. Typically you'd require the discovered elements to be provisioned within DataMiner, automatically with the correct connector and the corresponding details.

Kind Regards,
Jarno
