System Requirements for Discovery

Discovery runs under the following environments:

Windows Operating System

(tested under Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 Core, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019).

Microsoft .Net Framework 4.7.2 or higher installed

For Windows Server 2019 - FOD must be installed

Linux Desktop Environments

the following OS Distributions (with GUI) are tested

  • Ubuntu デスクトップ 16
  • Debian 9 (GNOME)
  • Debian 9 (KDE)
  • CentOS 7 (GNOME)
  • Linux Mint 18.2Cinnamon

NET Core Runtime Installed 
Mono 5.2.0 or higher installed

Other Distributions will also work but are not tested by us!

For Linux as Operating System you need to use at least Discovery 2.2.0 or higher. See Using Discovery on a Linux System


仮想マシンと 64 ビット システムがサポートされています。

The minimum suggested configuration is:

  • 4GB の利用可能 RAM
  • 2+GHZ の CPU
  • 500MB のディスク容量

Please Note that the system requirements depending on how many Hosts should be scanned and how many parallel threads you like to use.

System Requirements for Insight

Insight is an add-on to JIRA so you need to make sure JIRA is configured to handle the amount of data you plan to import into Insight. We recommend you to read this article from Atlassian about how to setup JIRA and recommended hardware requirements.

Insight & JIRA Version Requirements

(warning) Insight Discovery requires Insight version 5.x or later and JIRA version 7.0 or later.

Network Connection Requirements

Insight Discovery uses various methods to collect data on a network. 

To determine whether a host should be explored, Insight Discovery sends a ICMP-Echo Request to the host and try to connect to every host that answers.

It is also possible to connect to hosts where ICMP is forbidden. See IP-Modifier.

For transferring data between Insight Discovery (or the Collector) and Insight there must be an reachable network path (TCP-Port 445) or SSH-Copy (TCP-Port 22).

Make sure that the network path is also available for the user that runs the the Service.

SSH - LINUX 

For Linux machines, Insight Discovery use SSH to access target machines. SSH is a network protocol that allows data to be exchanged using a secure channel between two networked devices and requires a login to access.

By default the SSH TCP-Port is 22, it is possible to connect to an changed SSH-Port on the target machine. See IP-Modifier.

WMI - WINDOWS

For Windows machines, Insight Discovery use the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) interface to query devices.

Due to Microsoft security restrictions for WMI, the used credential must have local administrator privileges on the target machine.

Make sure that the following Firewall Rules are activated for the Host that should discover:

  • Windows Management Instrumentaion (WMI-In) (TCP ポート: 135) 
  • Windows Management Instrumentaion (DCOM-In) (TCP ポート: 動的)
    (初期設定では、WMI (DCOM) では 1024 と 65535 の間でランダムに選択された TCP ポートが使用されます)
  • PowerShell (TCP ポート: 5985)

The usage of the WMI or PowerShell Interface will be only available when Discovery is running on a Windows Operating System.

It is not possible to use WMI when you are using an Linux Operating System.

SNMP - Devices

For Network Devices, Insight Discovery use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to query devices. SNMP version 1, 2, and 3 is supported.

For SNMP the default UPD-Port 161 is used, make sure that the communication is possible.

vSphere - ESXi-Server

For vSphere ESXi-Server, Insight Discovery use the WEB-API to query informations from the server.

For the communication the SSL-Port 443 is used, make sure that the communication is possible.

Windows-Discovery-Agent (Optional)

If you have running Windows Systems with the optional Discovery-Agent,

then the Discovery-Tool use the outgoing TCP-Port 51337 and the Discovery-Agent the TCP-Port 51337 as inbound.
