Auto-discovery new devices only

Votes:

0

Is it possible to setup auto-discovery to only detect new\unique devices? Essentially once you move a device out of an auto-discovery group it will find it again. Multiple objects\sensors for the same device will thus be created. Ideally I would like to use the auto-discovery on a new network and then manually move the systems out of that group and into a new group one.

This should be fixed in PRTG version 8. One feature will be that auto discovery will then compare the fond IPs with the list of already existing devices regardless of the group they are in.
