Hi,

I am a new user.
I have installed Nagios XI on a linux centos

I am trying to do auto discovery adding IP range and I am not sure I see any nodes discovered.
I can ping this ip range from the actual box

am i missing anything?

Thanks in advance

159 is way too large for a bitmask and doesn't really mean anything. Try 172.16.92.0/24, it should actually discover some nodes.

Actually, if you set it to
172.16.92.0/27

it will just scan addresses
172.16.92.129 - 172.16.92.158
