Set Network Discovery Gateway

When you install CA Configuration Automation, you must specify the Network Discovery Gateway (NDG) server that CA Configuration Automation uses to perform discovery operations. If you install another NDG Server, and prefer to use that NDG server for discovery operations, you can use the Set Network Discovery Gateway option to assign the new NDG Server to your CA Configuration Automation Server.

NDG Servers are also associated with the servers that they discover. The Server table contains a Network Discovery Gateway column that shows the NDG Server that discovered it.

To assign an NDG server to a CA Configuration Automation Server

  1. Click the Management link, then click the Servers tab.

    The Servers tab page appears.

  2. Click the check box next to one or more servers that you want to associate with an NDG server, then select NDG Actions, Set Network Discovery Gateway from the Select Actions drop-down list.

    The Set Network Discovery Gateway dialog appears.

  3. Select the NDG server from the Network Discovery Gateway drop-down list, then click OK.

    The Network Discovery Gateway column of the Server table is update with the new NDG Server.
