IP Credentials

Use the IP Credentials dialog to store SSH, Telnet, or administrator credentials for devices discovered via IP range instead of AD.

To add credentials for an IP range:

1. On the IP Range Discovery Settings dialog, click Add.

   Note: If you want to add credentials to a pre-existing range, select the range and click Edit.

   

   Important: If you try editing or deleting credentials imported from the credentials store created via the command line, you'll receive a pop-up message alerting you that the credentials were imported via the ADE command line tool. This applies to all Discovery Techniques.

   Note: You can validate the credentials you entered by clicking the Test Connection button. See IP Connection Test for more information.

5. Click OK.

6. Make sure the Enabled box is checked and click OK.

Note: You can use the Credentials Manager in the Administration module to manage all credentials used with the ADE.
