Configuring Advanced Network Discovery Options

The Advanced of the network discovery policy allows you to configure policy-wide settings for what events are detected, how long discovery data is retained and how often it is updated, what vulnerability mappings are used for impact correlation, and how operating system and server identity conflicts are resolved. In addition, you can add host input sources and NetFlow exporters to allow import of data from other sources.

Note	Database event limits for discovery and user activity events are set in system configuration.
