Procedure
To add a single host:
1. From the Discovery menu, select TCP/IP>Add Host. The Add Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box
appears.
Figure 14: Add Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box
2. Enter the name or the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the host to be added.
3. Configure the discovery method:
• If you want to add the host using default discovery methods, check Add using default
credentials and click Add Host. You will receive a message indicating whether the new
host was successfully added.
• If you want to add the new host using specific CIM credentials, check Add using spe-
cific CIM credentials, modify any additional CIM settings and click Add Host. The Add
Remote TCP/IP Host dialog box appears with default CIM settings. CIM credentials are
most often used when managing VMware ESX 3i or VMware ESXi 4.x servers.
Note: Entering the IP address to identify the host avoids possible name resolution issues.
Note: IPv6 address tuples are delimited by colons and can be entered in a shortened form
(i.e. supressing 0's) as defined by the IPv6 address specification.
Note: CIM is only supported on Windows systems.
