Discovering devices with SiteConfig

  • The Ethernet switch or switches that support the control network must be configured and operational. If multiple switches, ISLs are connected and trunks configured.
  • The PC that hosts SiteConfig must be communicating on the control network.
  • There must be no routers between the PC that hosts SiteConfig and the devices to be discovered.
  • Devices to be discovered must be Windows operating system devices, with SiteConfig support installed.
  • Devices must be cabled for control network connections.
  • If discovering a device with Microsoft Windows Server 2008 operating system, the device must have an IP address, either static or DHCP supplied.

  2. In the toolbar, click the discover devices button.

    The Discover Devices dialog box opens.



    A list of discovered devices is displayed.
