Creating a

Network Group in

AXIS ThinWizard

The network group concept is the corner stone of AXIS ThinWizard. By

dividing your network into network groups, you can monitor your print

servers more efficiently. The scope of each network group is determined

by the Axis server types and IP address ranges that are included. You can

create as many network groups as you want.

Follow the instructions below to create a network group:

1. Click

Network Groups in the AXIS ThinWizard main menu.

2. Click

Create.

3. The Create Network Group page opens. Type the name of the network group,

enter the IP address ranges and Axis server types that should be included.
If you are only interested in managing print servers, deselect all options but
the

print server option.

These parameters must be enabled in the print server’s Web interface for AXIS ThinWizard to
function properly:
• FTP_ENB (FTP enabled): click

Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | TCP/IP Net-

work | FTP Enabled => Yes.

• SNMP_ENB (SNMP Enabled): click

Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | SNMP |

SNMPv1 Enabled => Yes

These parameters are enabled by default in the print server.
