NIC discovery

[coryk]

We've had some inquiry from our Server Operations team to discover and list NIC's for Servers.   Some servers have one, but we have up to 4 on a server and they would like discovery to find the NIC's and list them on the form.   Has anyone done this and is it possible?

All the network cards connected to the Server would have entries in the Network Adapter (cmdb_ci_network_adapter) table. Did you check the given table...

Hi Cory,

The WMI command below will be used by the "Windows - Identity" probe to collect the network adapter list on the target server in case of a Linux server:

wmic path win32_networkadapterconfiguration

This information will be populated into the cmdb_ci_network_adapter table
