The WirelessN Discovery Tool allows you to manage and monitor supported
radios in a wireless network. This program uses proprietary discovery protocol
messages to display a network topology diagram and current detailed information
for each detected device. For each detected node you can set the IP address or
upgrade the device firmware, or launch the graphical management interface to
access more comprehensive status and configuration options.
The WirelessN Discovery Tool supports Microsoft Windows XP (all editions and
service packs) and Microsoft Vista (all editions) operating systems. Please
contact ProSoft Technology Inc. for questions relating to support for other
operating systems.
The WirelessN Discovery Tool supports the following network discovery and
monitoring activities:

between various radios in the network (page 116)
