Select Main > Policy Management > Discovery Policies > Network Discovery Tasks to configure discovery on your network machines. The resulting screen displays all of the network discovery tasks that have been established to date.
Note that network discovery is performed on a hostname if it is supplied, an FQDN if there is no hostname, and an IP address if there is no hostname or FQDN. The crawler does not search all of these, only the first property it encounters.
To add a new network task, click New then select the type of task to create from the menu. You can create any of the following types of discovery tasks:
*
File Discovery
*
File System tasks
*
SharePoint tasks
*
Domino tasks
*
Box Cloud tasks
*
Database Discovery
*

*
Email Discovery
*
Exchange tasks
*

A wizard appears.

Important 
For best practice, only run discovery tasks on directories that are protected by an antivirus application and found to be clean. Running discovery tasks on files not known to be clean can lead to unexpected results such as a suspension or termination of the discovery tasks by the antivirus process. Running discovery tasks on files that were never scanned by an antivirus application can lead to a propagation of malware and viruses.
