We have never used the ping option for discovery until now. However, we are
finding that hosts are not being discovered. Below are my settings. Am I
missing something or is there something I should fine tune?
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Log live hosts in the report = yes
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Make the dead hosts appear in the report = no
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Do an applicative UDP ping (DNS,RPC...) = yes
Ping the remote host[entry]:Number of retries (ICMP) : = 6
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Do an ICMP ping = yes
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Do a TCP ping = yes
Ping the remote host[checkbox]:Do an ARP ping = no
Ping the remote host[entry]:TCP ping destination port(s) : = built-in
