If you are also a Defender for Endpoint customer, you can identify devices managed by Defender for Endpoint in the Defender for Endpoint **Device inventory** page. In the **Endpoints** tab, filter for devices by **Onboarding status**. For more information, see [Defender for Endpoint Device discovery overview](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/device-discovery).

1. Remove any devices that are [*not* considered as committed devices by Defender for IoT](#defender-for-iot-committed-devices).
83+
84+
1. Round up your total to a multiple of 100.
85+
86+
For example: In the device inventory, you have 473 network devices and 1206 IoT devices. Added together the total is 1679 devices, and rounded up to a multiple of 100 is 1700. Use 1700 as the estimated number of committed devices.

To edit the number of committed Enterprise IoT devices after you've onboarded a plan, you will need to cancel the plan and onboard a new plan in Defender for Endpoint. For more information, see the [Defender for Endpoint documentation](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/enable-microsoft-defender-for-iot-integration).
