Here are steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue within the context of ServiceNow:

  1. MID Server Status:

    • Check the status of the MID Server in ServiceNow. Ensure that the MID Server associated with the discovery is up and running.
    • Verify that the MID Server has the correct credentials and permissions to access and scan devices on the network.
  2. Firewall and Network Configuration:

    • Ensure that there are no firewall issues preventing communication between the MID Server and the target host.
    • Verify that the network configuration allows traffic between the MID Server and the devices in the 172.x.x.x range.
  3. Discovery Configuration:

    • Review the discovery configuration in ServiceNow. Confirm that the discovery job is set up correctly, and the target IP addresses and ports are specified accurately.
  4. Device Accessibility:

    • Manually check the accessibility of the target host with the IP address 172.x.x.x. Ensure that the host is reachable from the MID Server.
  5. Logs and Diagnostics:

    • Check the MID Server logs for any error messages or clues about the failure. Logs can provide valuable information about what went wrong during the discovery process.
