Our initial login won't take us to our splash screen until we've provided a basic list of target machines and credentials to Puppet Discovery. Puppet Discovery has the ability to tie into an entire Amazon Web Services, Google Compute Platform, Microsoft Azure, or VMWare VSphere account and perform automatic discovery of available resources. We can also provide a direct list of IP addresses if no API-driven platform is available.

In this section, we'll be adding a CIDR block of IP addresses to Discovery, which will be available to all users regardless of platform and hypervisor.
