Viewing periodical discovery
When you configure a scheduled discovery, SyncThru™ Admin 5 accumulates all the scheduled discoveries but you
can choose only the one you want to see. For example, if you configure a weekly discovery with Time Interval option
(See "Scheduling discovery" on page 38), there will be several discoveries generated by SyncThru™ Admin 5 after a
while. From the drop-down list in the upper left of the Found Device List panel, select the time and date of the
discovery you want to see.
Usage example
Strategy recommendations
• To minimize the impact on other network traffic, configure SyncThru™ Admin 5 to perform regularly scheduled
discoveries during off-hours at intervals that are appropriate for your network environment.
• To search through a range of addresses for TCP/IP devices on local or remote networks, use the IP Range
discovery method for the local or remote network.
• To search new TCP/IP devices as they are added to the local network, use the Broadcast discovery method or
add the devices manually in the Device List (See "Adding a device" on page 34).
• To run a very quick discovery with some network traffic, use the Broadcast discovery method or the SLP
discovery method.
• To search devices on the local network, use the Broadcast discovery method.
• To search devices on more than one subnet, use the IP Range discovery method, CSV Import discovery method
or SLP discovery method.
• To search devices when you have the devices listed as a file, use the CSV Import discovery method .
Using customized group with options
You can group the devices with options. For example, make a group in which the Location is the option for First
Floor. Then, when you start discovery, SyncThru™ Admin 5 searches using the selected discovery methods and
automatically adds the devices with First Floor for Location to the configured group.
If you want to organize groups automatically, you can use the custom filter function. Before starting discovery, create
