Zusammenfassung:Generating a geographical map usable for initiating discovery of network subnets within a computer network can include receiving a hierarchy of geo-location identifiers corresponding to levels of geographical abstraction and network subnets having associated geo-location identifiers included in the hierarchy. Geo-location identifiers of the network subnets can be mapped to corresponding first levels according to the hierarchy. A graphical user interface can be generated to include a geographical map and user interface elements such that a selection of a geo-location identifier can be received using a user interface element. A set of network subnets associated with the selected geo-location identifier and at least one agent software instance usable for performing discovery against the set of network subnets can be determined to initiate discovery of the set.
