ServiceNow Updated CIS-Discovery Exam Questions and Answers by millicent

The Debug Identification Section in Debug Mode allows you to specify the identification attributes of a CI that you want to debug. These attributes are used to find the CI in the CMDB and run the pattern on it. The identification attributes vary depending on the CI class, but for infrastructure patterns, the common ones are IP and Host Name. These attributes are also used by the horizontal discovery to identify CIs. AWS Endpoint and PID are not valid identification attributes for infrastructure patterns.

SNMP credentials are used by Discovery to communicate with devices that support the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP credentials do not include a user name, just a password, called the community string. The default read-only community string for many SNMP devices is public, and Discovery will try that automatically. Enter the appropriate SNMP credentials if they differ from the public community string1.
