Network discovery not working for me

I just cannot get this working and am not sure if I have misunderstood what to expect.

I have an agent installed on a network and I wish that agent to periodically inventory the network and report it back to the server.

I would expect the discovered devices to be created as new assets in GLPI

I have installed the agent with the following options:
msiexec /i GLPI-Agent-1.9-x64.msi /quiet SERVER=<my server address> ADD_FIREWALL_EXCEPTION=1 ADDLOCAL=feat_NETINV

Checking the agent tasks I see:

c:\Program Files\GLPI-Agent>glpi-agent --list-tasks

Available tasks :
- RemoteInventory (v1.5)
- NetDiscovery (v6.2)
- Inventory (v1.16)
- NetInventory (v6.2)

target server0: server <my server address>
Planned tasks: Inventory,NetInventory,RemoteInventory,NetDiscovery

The agent logs display the following:

[Sun Jun 16 16:01:57 2024][info] target server0: server <my server address>
[Sun Jun 16 16:01:57 2024][info] sending contact request to server0
[Sun Jun 16 16:02:02 2024][info] running task Inventory
[Sun Jun 16 16:02:02 2024][info] New inventory from server01-2024-06-16-15-07-00 for server0
[Sun Jun 16 16:02:41 2024][info] target server0: next run: Mon Jun 17 15:06:52 2024 - <my server address>
[Sun Jun 16 16:02:41 2024][info] GLPI Agent memory usage: WSS=3354624 PFU=136929280

On the glpi server the agent is listed with ticks next to:
* network discovery
* computer inventory
* network inventory
* remote inventory

What am I missing here?

OK...

Is the GLPI Inventory plugin required for network discovery when using agent version 1.10?

Re: Network discovery not working for me

Hi,

I'm struggling to get NetInventory working myself, but maybe I can help a little bit.

Administration > GLPI Inventory
> Networking > IP Ranges: Add (also add "Associated SNMP credentials", e.g. "Public community v2c")
> Task > add "Network discovery" with the IP range

Have you configured these?
Next step would be the NetInventory.
