Chromebook Discovery

[Jerry32]

Has anyone had luck discovering Chromebooks?  I'm using Quick Discovery and it fails at the Shazzam probe.  Running London.

Hi Jerry -- do have a SSH account setup on the Chromebook & defined as a CRED?  Since this is a linux-based device, it'll be trying to use SSH (I'm presuming... haven't tried... but..).   Test Putty or SSH client to connect to chromebook and be sure that works -- if it does, then setup same/similar account on Disco and Test the Credential before bothering to run quick disco

Hope that helps?

I'll give that a try.  Thanks for the quick response!

Unfortunately, Chromebooks are undiscoverable. Chromium is a hardened Linux distribution that will not respond to the usual protocols like SSH and SNMP.

Is there a way to set up an API to pull Chromebooks in?
