UVexplorer's network discovery uses three types of discovery methods; ARP Cache, Ping Sweep and Quick Scan.




The 'Quick Scan' discovery method is the fasted discovery option and it implements CISCO's proprietary CDP sightings to discover devices. This discovery is limited to network devices only and is the best for a quick tests of UVexplorer.



The PING sweep discovery method is for a focused discovery of your network. This option will only target the seed IP addresses listed in the field below. This option is great if you are discovering a set network only and do not want to discover your full network.




For clients who want to discover their full network, the ARP Cache option is best for you. This option searches the listed seed IP addresses and then searches the ARP tables and other sources to discover ALL devices on your network.


Please be aware this is the longest discovery method as it will search through your entire network.
