We are excited to announce availability of our Linux-based agentless auto-discovery software. Details below…
Portable executable
Getting going with this remote auto-discovery software is simple:
- Just drop the ready to go executable in a folder with the config file. (or you can use the –config switch to point to config file in different location)
- Modify the config file with Device42 details and ranges /credentials you want to discover. (For more details see https://docs.device42.com/auto-discovery/linux-based-autodiscovery-software/)
- Do chmod +x to the executable, if you are running it for the first time.
- Run the executable.
Extended discovery
In addition to getting hardware inventory details and IP/Mac info from Linux and Unix based systems, this auto-discovery tool also captures software and service details remotely.
Logs
When the executable is run, it creates 3-4 log files in the executable directory.
- short.log : A short summary of what IPs succeeded and what failed.
- error.log: Errors, if any
- debug.log: If debug enabled
- api.log : api data collected and sent
