Asset Discovery Rules tab (asset discovery)

Navigate to:

  • web client: Asset Management > Discovery > Assets > (add or edit a Asset Discovery job).

Use the Asset Discovery Rules tab to govern the discovered assets.

Discovery details
  • Once Safeguard for Privileged Passwords creates an asset, it will not attempt to re-create it or modify the asset if the asset is rediscovered by a different job.
  • Any SSH host keys encountered in discovery will be automatically accepted.
  • You can configure multiple rules for an Asset Discovery job. When Safeguard for Privileged Passwords runs the Asset Discovery job, if it finds an asset with more than one rule, it applies the connection and profile settings of the first rule that discovers the asset.

To add a new Asset Discovery rule

  1. On the Asset Discovery Rules tab, click  Edit.
  2. Click  Add.
  3. In the New Asset Discovery Rule dialog, enter a Name up to 50 characters.
  4. You must specify at least one condition, the connection, and a profile for each rule:

    1. Under Conditions, click Add Condition (asset discovery) to add one or more Group, Constraints, LDAP Filter (for LDAP or Active Directory), or Find All. For more information, see Add Condition (asset discovery).

    2. A Connection Template is required and defaults to Use Discovered Platform (no credentials are associated). To change this, deselect the checkbox.

    3. On the Management tab, you can manage the profiles to govern the discovered assets.

      • The password profile:

      • You may select SSH Key Profile to select or create an SSH key profile.
      • You may select Account Discovery Job to select or create an account discovery job.
      • For Managed Network, you can select the managed network assigned for workload balancing.
    4. Use the Tags tab to add rule-based tags. To add a tag to the rule, click Add Tag and enter the tag.
  5. Click Apply to save the Asset Discovery rule.

Add Condition (asset discovery)

An Asset Discovery rule can have more than one condition, and each condition can have one or more constraints. When Safeguard for Privileged Passwords runs the discovery job, it finds all assets that meet all of the search conditions.

Navigate to:

  • web client: Asset Management > Discovery > Assets > (add or edit Asset Discovery job) > New Asset Discovery Job dialog > Asset Discovery Rules tab > (add asset discovery rule) > New Asset Discovery Rule dialog > Conditions tab> (add condition).

Add Find All condition

  2. If you are setting up an Asset Discovery job for a directory, Browse the Filter Search Location to select a container within the directory to search for assets. Select Include objects from sub containers to include objects from sub containers or clear the check box to exclude child objects from discovery.

  3. Click Preview to test the conditions you have configured and display a list of assets Safeguard for Privileged Passwords will find in the directory or network you specified based on the conditions entered.

  4. Click OK.
