SNMP Network Scan

The first step in configuring the server is to identify all manageable devices in your network environment. The Setup Wizard, available via Network Scan Wizard button on main toolbar, will attempt to find all SNMP compliant devices in a given network range. This is useful if you don't want to manually enter each SNMP device attached to your network.

SNMP Network Scan Wizard

The first step lists you all steps in this wizard.

You can customize the following scan options in the second step:
 

SNMP Community: The community between the manager and agent.

Timeout: Amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait for a SNMP agent response.

Local Network: search for manageable devices in your default adapter subnet.

Ip Address Range: Search for devices into an IP range.

From: First IP address of the desired scan range.

To: Last IP address of the desired scan range.
