      For servers that are using newer operating systems, similar functionality is present with the operating system; this step is not required.
    2. For all Windows hosts including Windows 2008, add Windows credentials to the Discovery Credentials table.
    3. On the ServiceNow instance, create a Discovery Schedule for each host IP address.
    4. 옵션: Create a behavior that uses a functionality definition with a wbem port probe to make the initial port-scanning phase (Shazzam) more efficient.
    5. Run network discovery.
      주:
      If the host also connects to a NAS or SAN storage array, set up the SMI-S Provider and CIM credentials.
