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

If discovery rules are present in the NFM-P, they are synced 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 associated with a unified discovery rule.

The classic discovery rule provides the following to the NSP:

• 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

• IP addresses to be discovered or excluded, called rule elements in NFM-P

Note: The classic discovery rule in the NSP UI does not display the list of included and excluded IP addresses: these lists are included in the unified discovery rule when the classic rule is associated with it.
