Broadcast Search

The Broadcast Search function is used to locate all NPort 5400s that are connected to the same
LAN as your computer. Since the Broadcast Search function searches by MAC address and not IP
address, all NPort 5400s connected to the LAN will be located, regardless of whether or not they
are part of the same subnet as the host.

1. Position the cursor in the right middle section of the Administrator window and then click the

right mouse button.

2. The Broadcast Search window will open and display the Model, IP Address, MAC Address,

and Progress of the search for that particular device.

3. When the search is complete, the Broadcast Search window will close, and the NPort 5400s

that were located will be displayed in the right pane of the Administrator window. If you
found more than one server connected to this network, refer to the MAC address sticker on
your server(s) to determine which server(s) are the ones you wish to configure. To configure
an NPort 5400, place the cursor over the row displaying that NPort 5400’s information, and
then double click the left mouse button.
