ServiceNow Certified Implementation Specialist – Discovery — Question 69

A Discovery Schedule contains a /24 subnet IP Range and a Shazzam batch size of 5000.
How many times will a Shazzam probe be launched during discovery?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

In a /24 subnet, there are 256 IP addresses, but 2 are reserved for network and broadcast, leaving 254 usable addresses. Since the Shazzam batch size is 5000, it exceeds the number of available IPs, which means only 1 probe will be launched to cover the entire range.
