Building network maps using IP-nodes found by Discovery.

The IP nodes discovered by the Discovery utility can be copied to network maps.

Follow the steps described below

1. Switch to Designer mode.
2. Open the "Discovery / Discover IP nodes" window by selecting Options|Discovery / Discover IP nodes from the menu on the main window.
3. Add one or more ranges that reflect the subnet structure of your network.
4. If the Discovery utility is not already running (started automatically performing a periodic scan) you can start the utility EITHER for each individual range one after another by selecting the range and pressing the Discover selected Range button OR by pressing the Discover all Ranges button.
5. If the Discovery utility has finished (The statusbar at the bottom of the page shows: "Discovery is idle"), verify and eventually add or modify the Class associations.
6. Select the nodes to copy (multiple items in the list can be selected at the same time), right-click the selected nodes and select Copy node(s) from the popupmenu.
7. Go to the map to which you want to add the nodes, right-click anywhere on the map and choose Paste node(s).
8. The nodes are added to the map.

If a node with the same name already exists on the map, an index between parentheses is appended to node’s name.

Only nodes that are associated with existing Monitor one Classes can be copied and pasted.
