About this task

The Metadata tab includes settings for several features related to metadata that enhance analysis and reporting in the Discovery Console for OT. The Query Driver settings control your Sensors’ performance and resource usage. These settings manage how quickly Auto Queries are executed and how much load is placed on your network devices. They also regulate how many queries a Sensor can execute simultaneously. The Delay setting specifies the interval between consecutive queries. For example, setting the delay to 50% effectively halves the time between queries and operating the query at a faster pace.
