Scheduled Discovery - Ignore All MS TCP Loopback interfaces

Question

Hello!

I currently do a scheduled discovery on our Server VLANs weekly and every Monday morning I come in to "400 changed nodes", most of which are MS TCP Loopback interfaces. Is there a way to ignore all "MS TCP Loopback interfaces"? I really don't want to have to go through selecting each interface and clicking ignore!

I notice there is a dbo.DiscoveryIgnoredInterfaces table in the database, but I am not sure of the best way to populate it?

Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul--

Solarwinds doesn't recommend that you manipulate the database b/c it can lead to data loss. Having said that, someone in the community might have done this and can help you.

Thx,
