What You'll Learn

  • A combination of course content and lab work will help attendees learn to:
  • Gain a clear understanding of the ServiceNow Service Mapping solution and its capabilities and how it differs from the ServiceNow Discovery solution
  • Learn the concepts and value of ServiceNow Service Mapping top down discovery that allows ServiceNow administrators to model an entire service by providing a single entry point to the service such as a web URL or host address and port
  • Install and configure MID Servers
  • Navigate the Service Mapping user interface
  • Configure Service Mapping credentials
  • Configure Service Mapping to discover and model a service from a top down approach including all the applications, network devices, and servers that support it
