An Administrator level user can connect DX8100 units, even when the exact IP address of a remote HVR is not known. To add a site successfully, the following items must be established:

•Each HVR must be attached to the same TCP/IP subnet or LAN.

•The first three octets of the IP address of the HVR host or subnet must be known.

•The range of addresses used in the last octet of the HVR host or subnet must be known.

c.Enter the final value for the search range in the box provided (for example, 254). Each octet of the IP address must be an integer number between 1 and 255.
