All you need to do is ensure that the VPN subnet (if not a bridged VPN) is routable from your network and that firewall rules allow the scan traffic through. You can specify a scan range just like you would normally for you main network. If you are looking to scan large swaths of machine in a remote VPN (i.e. site-to-site) a remote collector is probably a much better choice. Also if you are doing remote mobile like laptops a remote collector isn’t a bad idea either, thankfully though it is my understanding that Spiceworks is developing an agent which would be much more useful for scenarios like mobile laptops.<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2011-07-28T07:55:26.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/add-a-device-that-is-on-a-vpn/96809/3","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"alex3031","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/alex3031"}},"suggestedAnswer":[{"@type":"Answer","text":"
