It is not advisable to increase the default frequency of device discovery because this can create an excessive load on domain controllers. Instead, it is recommended to schedule polling at the minimum possible frequency permitted by the needs of your organization. Recommendations for calculating the optimal schedule are provided in the table below.
Device discovery schedule
Number of networked devices |
Recommended device discovery frequency |
|---|---|
Less than 10,000 |
Default frequency or less |
10,000 or greater |
Once per day or less |
