Device Finder automatic optimize subnet ranges

Often we hear that customer are separating their Subnets in smaller blocks to optimize the inventory discovery with the Device Finder.

It's good to know that the Slurp'it Device Discovery does this already automatically, so there is no need to do that.

How does it work ?
Large subnets, for example a /8 will be splitted first in batches of /13. Those batches can be handled by individual workers, so if you have a Multi Worker setup they will all device the load.

Within a Worker (container) it will split the /13 or any other subnet automatically in block of /26 which are then processed in parallel. 

Seperated over Workers
becomes a / 13

Seperated within the Worker
becomes a /26
