Creating and Modifying Discover Scripts 3-11
Discovering Nodes
Defining a Community Name
Once you have specified the IP addresses that will be queried during the Discover, you
must supply the discover application with one or more community names that will provide
at least Read access to the devices you wish to discover.
When a script with more than one assigned community name is executed, the Discover
application will query each address in the specified address range(s) and/or subnet(s)
using the first community name listed in the Community Names group box. If a node
responds, the other community names are not used to query that node. If there is no
response to the first query, the address is queried again using the second listed community
name. This process is repeated until a response is returned or until all listed community
names have been used to query the address. If no response is elicited from an address after
using all community names assigned to the script, the Discover application gives up on
that address, and moves on to the next one.
To select a community name for use in your Discover script:
1. To define a new community name , click New to the right of the Community
Names group box; or click the right mouse button anywhere in the
Community Names group box, and select New from the resulting menu.
To modify an existing community name , highlight the community name
that you wish to change, and click Properties ; or click the right mouse button
on the community name that you wish to modify, and select Properties from
the resulting menu.
The Community Name Properties window ( Figure 3-8 ) opens.

2. If the Community Name: field contains a default name, it will be highlighted.
If you wish to use a different community name, type the new name into the
field.
3. Click OK to save the community name and close the window. The community
name you have entered will be listed in the Community Names group box.
NOTE
If a default community name has been specified (either via the Welcome Wizard or via the
Network page of the Tools—>Options window) and the autofill function has been
activated (via the Workspace page of the Tools—>Options window), the Community
Name properties window will contain a default community name value.
