Unmanaged Computers Discovered List

Applies To: WatchGuard Advanced EPDR, WatchGuard EPDR, WatchGuard EDR, WatchGuard EPP

The Unmanaged Computers Discovered list shows all computers and devices on the network that do not have the WatchGuard Agent or an endpoint security product installed. All computers that meet these requirements appear on the Unmanaged Computers Discovered list in the management UI, regardless of whether their operating system or device type supports installation of WatchGuard Endpoint Security.

For a discovery computer to find unmanaged computers on the network, the computers must:

  • Not be hidden by the administrator.
  • Not be currently managed by WatchGuard Endpoint Security.
  • Be located on the same subnet segment as the discovery computer.

You can add the Unmanaged Computers Discovered list to My Lists on the Status page. For more information on how to manage lists, go to About My Lists in WatchGuard Endpoint Security.
