This solution is relevant for Discovery Probe version 4.0 and above.
The IP Range Scan can be configured to include individual IPs, a Range or an entire Network. Here are the supported formats when specifying the hosts to be discovered and excluded from a scan.
IP Range Input Format (Include these IP Members)
The Discovery Probe will support the following options for defining the IP Ranges/Networks that should be scanned.
Single host 192.168.1.1 Multiple hosts 192.168.1.3,5,6 All hosts in a subnet (CIDR) 192.168.1.1/23 All hosts in a range
192.168.1-3.15-25 - Enter every IP Address, Range or Network in a New Line in the text area
Note: Configuring a scan with very large IP ranges will result in long scan times and might impact the traffic in your network.
Exclusion List Input Format (Exclude these IP Members)
The Discovery Probe will support the following options for defining the IP Ranges/Networks that should be excluded from the scan. Note that the input format for specifying multiple hosts in exclusion list is different from the format for scanning multiple hosts
Single host 192.168.1.1 Multiple hosts 192.168.1.3,192.168.1.5 All hosts in a subnet (CIDR) 192.168.1.1/23 All hosts in a range
192.168.1-3.15-25 - Enter every IP Address, Range or Network in a New Line in the text area
