Network Discovery Using the Network Sonar Discovery Wizard
SolarWinds products employ the easy-to-use Network Sonar Discovery Wizard to
direct you in the discovery of devices on your network. Before using the Network
Sonar Discovery Wizard, consider the following points about network discovery in
SolarWinds UDT:
n The Network Sonar Discovery Wizard recognizes network devices that are
already in your Orion Platform database and prevents you from importing
duplicate devices.
n CPU and Memory Utilization charts are automatically enabled for your
Windows, Cisco Systems, VMware, and Foundry Networks devices.
n The community strings you provide in the Network Sonar Discovery Wizard are
only used for SNMP GET requests, so read-only strings are sufficient.
The following procedure steps you through the discovery of devices on your network
using the Network Sonar Discovery Wizard.
To discover devices on your network:
1. If the Network Sonar Discovery Wizard is not already open, click Start > All
Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Configuration and Auto-Discovery > Network
Discovery.
2. If you want to create a new discovery, click Add New Discovery, click Add
New Discovery.
