Adding new devices

When adding new devices to ADDER.NET, you can choose to:

• Scanthenetworktolocateandadddevices(seebelow),

• Add new devices manually, or

• Usethedevice auto-conﬁguration service.

To scan the network to locate and add devices

1 On the ADDER.NET Manager menu bar, place your mouse pointer over

Devices and then choose Scan Network from the drop down list. The

screen will show:

2 Enter your search parameters and click the Scan button.

Notes:

Ensure that the KVM-over-IP device(s) that you seek are switched on,

correctly conﬁgured and are connected to an IP network that can be

accessed by ADDER.NET.

If the ADDER.NET server system is on the other side of a ﬁrewall from the

device(s) that you seek, ensure that an exception is registered with the

ﬁrewall for port 5900. Please see Appendix 5 - Conﬁguring ﬁrewalls for

more details.

Power control devices (PCDs) cannot be added by scanning the network,

instead use the manual method or the device auto-conﬁguration

service.
