📄️ Network Discovery Settings
Motadata uses the discovery settings to connect with your network. Motadata stores the device information in network discovery profiles and device credentials in the credential profile. Network discovery profiles are used to identify the devices in your network. A credential profile is used to validate the credentials of the device. When Motadata successfully discovers the devices, it asks you to provision them. With device provisioning, you select only those devices that you want to see in the Motadata. Based on the device type, a default template is assigned to the provisioned devices. The provisioned devices also consumes the license.
