Smart Polling results

Smart Polling retrieves details from nodes to enrich asset data. This enriched information also enables other information to be enriched, such as hardware components, common platform enumeration (CPEs), and related vulnerabilities. When the Simple Network Management Protocol strategy (SNMP) strategy is used, it also populates the Physical graph in the Graph page.

Once a Smart Polling plan has executed successfully, some or all of the information in sections of the Assets page should have been enriched.

Physical graph

In addition to the above sections, Smart Polling provides the necessary information to populate the Physical graph. To do this, you need to use the simple network management protocol (SNMP) strategy to poll network switches or routers.
