Scheduling discovery

You can create multiple schedules (to a maximum of 32) for each profile. When it is time for a
schedule to run, discovery handles schedules in the following manner:

If discovery is already running for the profile, the scheduled discovery drops.

If discovery is already running for a different profile, the scheduled discovery is queued. Once
all discovery jobs in the queue finish, the scheduled discovery runs.

If no discovery is running, the scheduled discovery starts.

To schedule a discovery profile, complete the following steps.

1. Select Discover > IP Products.

The Discover Setup - IP dialog box displays.

2. Click the Profiles tab

3. Select the profile you want to edit in the Discovery Profiles table and click the Scheduling tab.
