In addition to performing its traditional discovery of network objects, the IP Manager, as shown in Exporting topology collection sets to satellite Domain Managers, can be configured to create topology collection sets from the discovered network objects, one set for each of the satellite Domain Managers that are supported by the IP Manager. The creation of topology collection sets is known as “IP Manager light discovery” or simply “light discovery.”
The term “satellite,” as used here, refers to any of the Domain Managers that import topology and topology updates from the IP Manager.
