Discovery Client 

The Discovery Client provides a technician with a method of locating all of the Edge devices that are 
connected to a network.  Edge device information is displayed providing the ability to ‘blink’ the Edge 
device Comm LED and configure it by launching a browser pointed at the Configuration GUI of the 
targeted Edge device.  When the Discovery Client is launched, a discover command is issued and the 
Configuration GUI screen is populated with the results.  Also provided is the ability to refresh the 
Configuration GUI screen on command. 

Use this feature when the Edge device(s) and the network have been installed and are operational, but 
before the Edge device(s) has been configured.  At this point, all of the Edge devices on a network will 
have the same host name and unknown IP addresses (assuming a DHCP environment).  In this 
scenario, the only mechanism available to configure a Edge device is by placing one device on the 
network at a time.  The Discovery Client provides an easy to use mechanism to configure Edge devices.
