# IRE Rule

The Discovery application allows you can create IRE rules and define priorities for discovering assets on a target platform.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> To enable IRE, we have to add Keys to both Proxy and DC.

To configure the IRE Rules, perform the following steps:

1. Navigate to **Admin** > **Discovery Monitoring** > **General** > **IRE Rule**.
2. Click **Add New** from the right action panel to configure new **IRE Rule**. The **IRE Rule** page is displayed. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/62351b42-cfbd-43ad-8ce1-82b8f455337f/Images/Documentation/IR1.png) Figure: IRE RULES Page

3. Enter the details for configuring the **IRE Rules**. For example: You can define the **Rule Name** as RED HAT Linux, **Rule Type** as **Hardware** (system configured), **Target Platform** as **Linux**, **Device Type** as **ESXi** or **SUSE** or **Select All**, **System Type** as **Computer**, and select **the Vendor** type as **HP** from the list.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Target platform and Device type are not mandatory for configuring IRE Rules.

4. Select the **Sync Rule** as **Now** to process the rule immediately.
