The IP Range Scan can be configured to include individual IPs, a ange, or an entire network.

Note : Creating custom schedules for IP Range Scans is supported from Probe v4.8.0 onwards. If you have an older version of the Discovery Probe, please download and install the latest version of the Probe from the Freshservice application ( _Admin -> Discovery -> Probe)_.

You can configure custom schedules for IP Range Scans using the steps mentioned below. Here's how:

  • Open Task Scheduler
  • Create a Task with the following details.
  • - In Security options -\> This task should be run as an administrator user.  So select an admin user under the user account and select the check box _Run with highest privileges_.

    - In Actions tab, click on the _New Action_ button.

    - In the action drop-down, select _Start a Program._

    - Click on Browse and select FSScheduler.exe file from the Probe install location/bin folder.

    - In the Arguments Box, enter the argument " _IPRangeScan <space><your ip range scan name>_".

    Note: The IP Range name can be obtained from the Freshservice Probe. Open the Probe window, click on the IP Range tab, and find the domain name under the Domain/WorkGroup column. Please use the exact name in the arguments

    - You can also provide multiple comma-separated IP Range Scan names. Eg. " _IPRangeScan <space> name1,name2,name2"_\- here name1, name2, name3 are the names of the IP Range Scans that are configured under the IP Range Tab

    - Configure your schedule behavior under triggers.
