Start-MIPNetworkDiscovery

Relevant for: AIP unified labeling client only

Instructs the Azure Information Protection scanner to start a network scan job.

Syntax

Start-MIPNetworkDiscovery
     -JobId <Guid>
     [-Force]
     [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Start-MIPNetworkDiscovery cmdlet instructs the Azure Information Protection scanner to immediately start a specified network scan job.

Network scan jobs enables AIP administrators to scan a specified IP address or range for possibly risky repositories. Administrators may want to add these repositories to a content scan job to further scan their contents.

The scanner's Network Discovery service must be started before you can run this cmdlet.

Note

The Azure Information Protection (AIP) network discovery feature uses AIP analytics (public preview). As of March 18, 2022, we are sunsetting network discovery together with the AIP analytics and audit logs public preview. Moving forward, we'll be using the Microsoft 365 auditing solution. Full retirement for network discovery, AIP analytics, and audit logs is scheduled for September 30, 2022.

For more information, see Removed and retired services.
