About Discovered Devices
The Discovered Devices page shows detailed information about all the discovered devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) Discovery Report, which includes Internet of Things (IoT) devices, servers, and unmanaged user devices. You can filter the table by device type, category, classification, or location.
Discovered Devices provide the following benefits and enable you to:
- Gain comprehensive insights into all the IoT devices, servers, and unmanaged user devices connected to your organization's traffic.
- Provide feedback on inaccurate or unknown device classification.
- Understand and evaluate IoT policy status and its impact on IoT device behavior.
- Analyze web logs for each device's traffic to secure your organization's traffic from potential threats posed by diverse device environments.
About the Discovered Devices Page
On the Discovered Devices page (Analytics > Internet & SaaS > Analytics > IoT Discovery Report > any section of the IoT Discovery Report), you can do the following:
- Show or hide filters.
- Download the data in a CSV format.
- Filter the table by Device Type, Category, Classification, Policy Status, or Location.
- Search for a device by its IP address or auto label.
- View a list of devices. For each device, you can see the following columns:
IP Address: The IP address of the device. Click on an IP address to open the page to get more insightful information on this device.
- Detailed Information per IP Address
The detailed information per IP address page consists of the following sections:
- 1. Device Details
This section shows the auto label, category, classification, location, type, and protocols used.
Close - 2. Web Policy
This section shows the following details:
- Timestamp: The reporting period that summarizes when the web policy was applied and when the policy action took place on the device.
- Policy Status: Displays if the IoT policy is applied or not.
- Total IoT Policies: Total number of IoT policies.
Policy Action tables: You can view details pertaining to the policy action (Allow or Block) in a table which provides details such as policy name, type of policy, and number of hits. You can click the number of hits to further drill down to view details of Policy Type, Policy Action, Total Hits, Allowed Domains, or Blocked Domains corresponding to the option you selected. You can view a list of Domain/IP with the Protocols and the number of hits for the allowed and blocked domains. You can additionally view logs, export data, or search for a particular domain.
Currently, only URL Filtering policy status and statistics data are available in the IoT Report. The default policy None (default) is a URL Filtering policy and not an IoT specific policy. Therefore, it is not counted as an IoT policy.
