To identify computers on which you can install Veeam backup agents, you must configure discovery rules and run discovery in the client infrastructure.

Veeam Availability Console supports the following discovery methods:

Network-based discovery

This method allows you to discover computers based on a range of IP addresses.

Active Directory discovery

This method allows you to discover computers being part of an AD domain.

Import-based discovery

This method allows you to discover computers by importing a list of IP addresses from a CSV file.
