Disabling IP Discovery
IP Discovery finds all IP-addressable nodes on your network and creates an object for
each discovered node. Lucent switches do not respond to IP Discovery; therefore, the
script disables it. See
Appendix C, “IP Discovery”
to re-enable IP Discovery.
When IP Discovery is disabled, the following messages display:
