I've set up several Active Discovery scans (one for each of the server farms we have), and set up the range in Active Discovery config for each of these to only scan the addresses which would could actually be used a server (did not include the addresses used by the router/switch since those would be a fixed config and would not require a regular network update scan).
What I'm getting from WUP are "Results of 'VLAN_<network name removed>' Active Discovery on (<Date/Time Removed>)" notifications for IP addresses that reflect the network and broadcast addresses as "discovered.... Seems strange that these addresses are outside of the IP address ranges which were set up tp be checked and even stranger that they are "discovering" GWPOA and GWMTA ports (custom configured services looking for the service ports to be "accessible")... Anyone else out there set up Active Discovery on any of their subnetworks and seeing similar behavior? Any suggestions on what to check within the application config to eliminate these unnecessary/unwanted e-mails short of disabling the Active Discovery functionality? ------------------------------------------------------------ Bryan Harrell, SPII Network Infrastructure - Tallahassee Fla.
