Chapter 37      Using Host Profiles 
  
Note that a host profile may not be available for every host on your network. Possible reasons include:
  •
the host was deleted from the network map because it timed out
  •
you have reached your FireSIGHT host license limit
  •
the host resides in a network segment that is not monitored by your network discovery policy
Note that the information displayed in a host profile may vary according to the type of host and the 
information available about the host. For example, if your system detects a host using a non-IP-based 
protocol like STP, SNAP, or IPX, the host is added to the network map as a MAC host and much less 
information is available than for an IP host.
As another example, although you can configure your network discovery policy to add hosts and server 
and clients to the network map based on data exported by NetFlow-enabled devices, the available 
information about these hosts and servers and clients is limited. For example, no operating system data 
is available for these hosts, unless you provide it using a scanner or the host input feature. For more 
information, see 
.
The following graphic shows an example of a host profile.
