System Settings - Manage NetLinx Devices
To access this page, click on the
Manage NetLinx Devices
link (
from within the System Settings section
of the Navigation frame
). These pages (FIG. 59) have some additions that have been incorporated as part
of
build 323 (or higher)
. These features include the display the device status as well as some background
color changes which indicate system groupings. These enhancements are visual changes which allow for
easier recognition of the information on a visual basis. IP connections are then able to utilize a network’s
higher layers of multicast to broadcast their existence.

Manage NetLinx Devices Page
Feature
Description
Clear List:
Clicking this button causes the entries to be temporarily deleted
from the page until either the user chooses to refresh the entries
(using the
Refresh List
button) or the Master begins to detect
any multi-cast transmissions as devices send out their
announcements.
Refresh List:
• Clicking this button allows the target Master to regenerate the
listing by looking for broadcasting devices.
• The button causes the Master to send out a message asking
devices to resend their NDP device announcements. The list is
then updated as those devices send back their announcements
to the “listening” Master.
• Due to system delays, message collisions, and multicast
routing, not all devices may respond immediately.
• The information displayed can not only include Masters and
devices on this system but Masters and devices on other
systems as well. By default, the target Master always appears
in the list.
A large number of NDP-capable devices on the network can result in a large amount
of network traffic occurring at the same time.
