5.6.13.1. `Asset detection network range` section of the `Assets/Users Association rules` sub menu

The `Asset detection network range` window enables viewing and modifying the private network address ranges for asset detection.

Active device detection only occurs for devices with an IP address within a specific network range.
This range is the amount of HOME_NET defined on all GCap paired with the GCenter.
Network variables can be configured for each GCap.
For GCaps where network variables have not been specified, HOME_NET is associated by default with the private networks defined by RFC1918.
This window displays the input fields in the address ranges reserved for private networks in IPv4:

Item	Private address view field	Detailed IP Range
1	prefix (10.0.0.0/8)	10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255
2	prefix (172.16.0.0/12)	172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
3	prefix (192.168.0.0/16)	192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255

The link `Network variables can be configured for each gcap` allows you to modify internal networks via the GCAP profile customization function.

This link takes you to the `Gcaps profiles` window (see Web UI `Config - Gcaps profiles` screen).
