NetBrain currently attempts SNMP access against every IP address identified during a live network discovery, even when the IP does not respond to an initial ping check. In large-scale environments, this results in significant time spent on SNMP attempts against unreachable or non-existent hosts, extending overall discovery duration. This enhancement would introduce an option to skip SNMP attempts for IP addresses that fail a preliminary ping check during discovery. Customers running large seed-based or full-network discoveries would benefit from substantially reduced discovery times and more efficient use of scanning resources.
