Active Discovery protocol details
All protocols implemented in the Active Discovery feature use standard packets commonly used by vendors. The system will never send requests on the network without a clear configuration made by the user. It is possible to schedule requests at a pre-defined frequency.
Discovered devices' responses will depend on the protocol implemented by the manufacturer and the user configuration. Except for what is clearly stated in this documentation, no specific configuration is required on discovered devices. Devices may give an answer by default, but it can vary in the field depending on the configuration.
This annex gives examples of the packets used by Cisco Cyber Vision to discover devices and of typical answers the user can expect.
