Create Host Table via Automatic Discovery

Click Automatic Discovery icon to find all compatible devices. Select the desired APs and other wireless devices (for example, located in building A). Click the right mouse button to open the popup menu. Choose Export Host Table to save the Host Table to a file (for convenience, you can save the Host table on a network disk for ease of access).

Import Host Table to check device’s availability

Import the Host Table from a file (for convenience, you can retrieve the Host table on a network disk for the ease of access). Once the Host Table is imported, WMS will automatically check the availability of APs and other compatible devices listed in the Host Table. This is an extremely powerful feature to make up for the inadequacy of Auto-Discovery. Auto-Discovery can only find compatible devices when they are alive. Failed devices cannot be found via Auto-Discovery. The devices listed in the Host Table should be available and provide the service. If they do not exist, WMS can report their absence immediately so that the system administrator can take immediate action.

New/Edit/Delete a Host Address on Host Table

Click the New Host Address button to open the New/Edit Address dialog box (Figure 34). After enter the Outdoor AP’s IP address, WMS will automatically find the device and list it on the Host Table. You can also select any Outdoor AP on the table and click the Remove Host Address button to delete it whenever it is no longer necessary.
