Gathering MAC Adresses without any credentialsHi,
Is is possible in some way to collect MAC adresses on devices where we do not have any credentials working? We are able to gather them through tools like advanced-ip-scanner, but in RN150 they only show up with their IP-adress.
Was really hoping RN150 would also show the MAC of these devices.

Amount of data collected and send across for each server from RH150 to Analytic engine in Flexera cloud (in case of SaaS).- JohnSorensenDK (Flexera Software)
That will depend on which of the stages that you're referring to in this question. It can vary from a few MB as a one-off to more over an extensive period of time if performance data is being collected.
Architecture wise, the RN150 collects a certain amount of data, and then creates a zipped, encrypted file which it then uploads, i.e., it happens in batches of data.
Thanks,
John Sorensen

In the Risc portal when in Menu Add Intellegence --> Visualize Topology, when i expand on a subnet location, it issues an error "No infrastructure data found for the location". Please suggest, my scan is over with over 1600 devie data captured in the subn- JohnSorensenDK (Flexera Software)
I see the same message when clicking on Location3 in our demo environment, i.e., a location without devices without a layer 2 network connection discovered:
Do you think that your discovery of this specific subnet includes valid credentials for a network layer 2 discovery of devices?
Please feel free to contact Flexera Support, if you believe it should have been able to discover this and need assistance in troubleshooting the issue.
Thanks,

Is it possible to exclude network devices for the scan?- JohnSorensenDK (Flexera Software)
@sboukam​
The discovery stage (referring to How We Collect documentation) is an ICMP (ping) sweep on the subnets defined to be in scope, i.e., network devices in these subnets will be discovered. However, you can leave these out of the inventory and performance stages.
Thanks,

Hello,
The RN150 is regularly patched via the required communication to initial.riscnetworks.com.
For minor updates, including security patches and library updates, this happens regularly and asynchronously.
For feature updates, they are documented here https://docs.flexera.com/cloud-migration/release-notes/ and then released for automatic updates if the features support existing assessments. Almost all updates do, but some changes like support for new virtualization platforms or new credential accesses are not.
Lastly, for major OS upgrades they will be made available automatically but will require the user of the RN150 to begin the upgrade process, and will interrupt the discovery process.
