Asset Management

To get the most out of USM Anywhere, you must provide information about all equipment included in your environment, which must be identified by a unique identifier, an IP address. Once the assets have been identified, there are several tasks that you must carry on. This chapter describes these necessary tasks to manage assets and asset groups. This chapter covers topics such as asset creation and discovery, asset scans, vulnerability scans, scheduling scans, asset monitoring, and analysis.
