Network Discovery enables devices to locate and identify other devices within the same network. It involves identifying and mapping devices and resources, including their IP addresses, MAC addresses, and support for new protocols. This process is essential for efficient IT asset management and ensuring seamless operations across networked systems.
Network Discovery is enhanced with an API-based approach which allows for better automation in asset registration and improved synchronization with Faveo’s Asset Management module.
