In a Windows network, you can have one Active Directory domain (company.com) for many servers, but each server has it's own hostname (server1.company.com, server2.company.com). I've seen that the Assets > Domains tab allows you to enter just one FQDN for multiple IP addresses (they show " qualys.com " as an example).

- Manage Your Domains
The Whois public server contains registration information for domain names and IP addresses. Note for Unit Managers. If you are a Unit Manager, then you must add the new domain to an asset group that you've been assigned. Once added, new domains are available in your business unit.
Once a domain is added to your account you can add or change the IP address netblocks and approved hosts for the domain. Go to VM/VMDR > Assets > Domains. Identify the domain you want to edit, select Info from the Quick Actions menu and then click Edit in the Domain Information window.

When you run a discovery scan we will create a map that gives you an inventory of your network devices as seen from the Internet (perimeter devices) or Intranet (internal devices). If you run discovery scans on a regular basis you can keep track of your continually evolving network. Changes in firewall rules or DNS setups may allow intruders to fin...
For each host detected we will show you a list of open services running on the host. Then for each service listed you can view the discovery method used to identify the service along with the port the service was running on, if available. Simply click the black arrow next to any host in your map results to view these details. Show me possible disco...
You can choose to be notified via email each time a map completes. The email gives you a summary of the results and a secure link to the saved report. Select User Profile below your user name, go to the Options section and select Map Notification. You'll notice additional email notifications you can opt in to. See difference in duration on Map Summ...
Under Target Domains, enter domains and domains with netblocks into the Domains/Netblocks field. The registered domain names that you enter must be in your account (under Assets > Domains), making them available to you for mapping. If a netblock was already specified as part of a domain configuration (on the domains list), then you only need to spe...
Under Target Domains, enter IPs and IP ranges into the Domains/Netblocks field. The IPs you enter must already be part of the None domain in your account. Important notes about mapping IPs/ranges: 1) Define the None domain - Go to your domain assets list (Assets > Domains) to determine whether the None domain has already been defined for your accou...
Under Target Domains, enter one or more asset groups in the Asset Groups field. Then identify which assets (domains and/or IPs) from the asset groups you want to target by selecting the Domains and/or IPs check boxes. When Domains is selected, we'll create a separate map for each domain in the asset groups. When IPs is selected, we'll create a sing...
Yes. Go to Scans > Setup > Excluded Hosts to create a list of IPs that you want to exclude from all maps and scans launched by all users. These hosts will not be scanned even if specified as part of the map target. An excluded host appeared in my map results. How come?
You customize your map by changing the map settings in a scan option profile. Go to Scans > Option Profiles to see the option profiles available to you or to create a custom profile. The following settings can be tweaked to meet your specific needs: ports to scan for host discovery, ports to scan for basic information gathering on the hosts discove...

This option is used for mapping asset groups with scanner appliances. Select the Default scanner option to use the default scanner defined in each asset group for discovery of the domains/IPs in those groups. When there are multiple targets we create multiple maps, one for each target. Discovery scans of your targets will run sequentially - one at ...
By launching a map on a domain in your account, the service tells you what your network looks like and gives you a mapping of your devices. To view information on a domain in your account, go to VM/VMDR > Assets > Domains, hover over a domain name and then select Info from the Quick Actions menu.
When scanning by IP address, during discovery Qualys performs a reverse lookup of the IP address. The name that is returned is used as the DNS name for the asset, and reported in QID 6. If the IP is in a DNS tracked range, that name is used (and is required) for tracking purposes.
