Devices that have a configuration status of Discovered are devices that were configured during the initial install or extension process and not added manually. The user has limited abilities to modify these devices. When the need arrises to edit the attributes of these devices, the user must first take ownership of the device.
Note:
Not all devices must belong to a network. For example, primary interfaces with a state of Discovered may not belong to a network.The process of taking ownership of a device and then editing or deleting that device slightly differs depending on whether or not that device currently belongs to a locked network. See Editing a Device for more information.
Before taking ownership of a discovered device, the device has a configuration status of Discovered; Locked. Edit and Delete are disabled. Immediately after taking ownership of the device, the configuration status temporarily changes to Configured and then Pending. Within a few minutes, the device should transition to its final configuration status of Deployed. If the device belonged to a locked network before taking ownership, the status displays as Deployed; Locked, otherwise it displays as Deployed; Unlocked.
Note:
Before taking ownership of a device, generate a device report. The device report serves as a record of the device's original settings. Print or save the device report for your records. For more information about generating a device report, see Generating a Device Report.Use the following procedure to take ownership of a device.
