Chapter 20 Displaying Status Information
Annex Manager User Guide
Part 4 Control and Status Commands
Understanding the Discover Annexes/Search Device Window
The
Discover Annexes/Search Device
window uses text fields to control the
discovery process, and an output box to display information about
Annexes and other devices. The window option button allows you to
determine the level of detail that appears in the output box and the push
buttons allow you to update your current Annex list or save the contents
of the output box to a file.
Discover Annexes/Search Device
may not find every Annex on a
network because the discovery process can identify only those
network devices that are visible to a specific search device at the
current time.
Using Text Fields This text fields control the identification process. You can complete the
following fields:
•
Search Device
accepts the name or IP address of any network
device that stores information about nodes, devices and
addresses on your network. You can use a device name or IP
address here.
Discover Annexes/Search Device
uses the Annex
Manager default community string to communicate with the
search device and with each device it queries.
•
SNMP Timeout
specifies the length of time in seconds that Annex
Manager waits for a response. You can enter a number of
seconds here. If you do not enter a value here,
Discover Annexes/
Search Device
uses the SNMP default.
•
SNMP Retries
controls the number of times that Annex Manager
tries to reach an Annex or other device on the network. You can
enter a number here. If you do not enter a value here, the
discovery process uses the SNMP default.
When you complete these fields, you can choose to initiate the
discovery process.
