About Include IP Scope

Include IP Scope defines the range of IP addresses in which to include in the network scan.

• For Ping Sweep Discovery, Include IP Scope is the same as the Seed IP Scope.
• For ARP Cache Discovery, Include IP Scope indicates an IP address range that the network scan should restrict itself to during discovery.

Note: In order a Include IP Scope scan to find devices, the Seed IP Scope must intersect with the Include IP Scope. For example, if you enter a Seed IP Scope of 188.311.5.1 and an Include IP Scope of 188.311.4.10-188.311.4.160, the scan is unable to locate devices because the two IP scopes do not intersect.

Example

• A single IP address (i.e. 10.0.0.1)
• A range of IP addresses (i.e. 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.100)
• A subnet range of IP addresses (i.e. 10.0.0.1/24 or 10.0.0.1/255.255.255.0)
