VR-N100U USERS MANUAL

4.3.Discovering VR-N100U Appliances

When you start up VDRView, a splash screen appears. The splash screen stays up until VDRView discovers all the VR- N100Us on the same segment of the subnet as your workstation. VDRView uses broadcasts to discover all of the VR-N100Us on that local subnet.

If you have a large subnet segment, or a lot of VR-N100Us, this process could take up to one minute or longer. When all VR- N100Us have been discovered, the screen will refresh and the newly discovered appliances will be displayed in the list in the Zerver Center page.

If VR-N100Us exist on other remote subnets, broadcasts will not discover them automatically. VDRView supports additional options for discovering these VR-N100Us and are outlined in the following sections (4.6.5 Options – Enable Discovery via Microsoft Browsing and via Remote Server List). A status bar located at the lower right corner may appear to provide you additional information.

NOTE: It is assumed that you have already completed the setup for your VR-N100U by following the directions provided under Chapter 2 Installing VR-N100U.
