Network Discovery Settings

Initial ping timeout: Specifies how long the discovery technology waits for a response to an ICMP query (ping).

Maximum ping retries: Specifies the number of times a ping is repeated before giving up.

Increment ping timeout on retries by: Adds the specified amount of time to each retry. For example, if the initial ping timeout is 200 milliseconds, the maximum ping retries is 3, and the increment is 200 milliseconds, the first retry timeout is 400, the second retry timeout is 600, and the third retry timeout is 800.

Perform name lookups: Uses a reverse lookup to associate the target IP address with a DNS name. Deselect this option if you do not want the DNS name discovered.

Initial SNMP timeout: Specifies how long the discovery technology waits for a response to an SNMP query before assuming that the packet is lost.

Maximum SNMP retries: Specifies the number of times an SNMP query is repeated before giving up.

Increment SNMP timeout on retries by: Adds the specified amount of time to each retry. For example, if the initial SNMP timeout is 500 milliseconds, the maximum SNMP retries is 3, and the increment is 1000 milliseconds, the first retry timeout is 1500, the second retry timeout is 2500, and the third retry timeout is 3500.

SSH connection timeout: Specifies how long the discovery technology waits to establish a SSH connection with the Linux device.
