Ping Sweep on specific IP range

KAROLY KOHEGYI · ‎02-23-2010

Hello!

I have a question concerning Ping Sweep On IP Range function in LMS 3.2.

The costumer have MPLS cloud so CDP discovery is not functional.

There are more then 400 branches.

I would like to set the specific ip Range like following because the B class mask is to large for discovery process ( ~7,5 day )

10.31.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.32.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.33.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.34.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.35.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.36.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.37.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.38.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

10.39.1-50.0 / 255.255.255.0

What is the right syntax in this case ?

Hi,

i tried the following syntax in ping sweep seed devices.

.

10.39.[1-50].240 255.255.255.240

.

The log shows the following

[Feb 26 12:29:02] FATAL [PingSweepDiscoveryModule : main initialize] : getting seed device ipaddress failed10.31.[1-200].240: 10.31.[1-200].240

How can i strict the ping range for the discovery process???

Thanks in advance!
