What is a classic discovery rule?

Classic discovery rules

A classic discovery rule contains the IP management, mediation and reachability information required to discover and manage classic devices. The rule includes the following:

• IP management protocol: IPv4 or IPv6

• mediation policies: read access, write access, trap access, and security access

• reachability policies: in band management, out of band management, SNMP reachability

If discovery rules are present in the NFM-P, they are synched to the NSP and appear in the Device Discovery, Classic Discovery Rules view. For a classic discovery rule to be used to discover devices in NSP, it must be used by a unified discovery rule. Click on a discovery rule to see the unified discovery rule in the Summary panel.
