Creating Port Objects During Discovery Rule Configuration

You can add new port objects to the list of available ports that appears in a discovery rule by adding them to the list of reusable port objects and groups that can be used anywhere in the system.

Procedure

Step 1

Choose Policies > Network Discovery.

In a multidomain deployment, if you are not in a leaf domain, the system prompts you to switch.

Step 2

In Networks, click Add Rule.

Step 3

Click Port Exclusions.

Step 4

To add a port to the Available Ports list, click Add (add icon).

Step 5

Supply a Name.

Step 6

In the Protocol field, specify the protocol of the traffic you want to exclude.

Step 7

In the Port field, enter the ports you want to exclude from monitoring.

You can specify a single port, a range of ports using the dash (-), or a comma-separated list of ports and port ranges. Allowed port values are from 1 to 65535.

Step 8

Click Save.

Step 9

If the port does not immediately appear on the list, click Refresh.
