Change Nameserver Addresses
This page allows you to configure the addresses of your DNS (up to 3) and/or WINS servers.
DNS servers allow systems to translate IP addresses into meaningful names. Please type at least
one DNS server that the CC-NOC can reach efficiently. Place your fastest local servers near the
top of the list.
WINS servers are used in NetBIOS and Windows networking environments to resolve NetBIOS
names across subnet boundaries. If you are managing several subnets that contain machines with
NetBIOS names and have a WINS server that manages the names of the machines, please type
the address of the WINS server in the spaces provided.
1. Click on the Admin

please see Chapter 4: Configuring Windows Management for additional information.

and services on a network.
Edit Discovery Ranges
This page allows you to modify your initial configuration settings, see Raritan’s CommandCenter
NOC Deployment Guide, determining which specific addresses or address ranges should or
should not be included for discovery. Once discovered, each system is cataloged as either a
Server, Infrastructure, Workstation, or Promoted Workstation device. In this page, you can also
set a flag that determines whether or not any newly discovered devices are automatically licensed
and managed or not. CC-NOC discovers devices via this discovery range, single device discovery
– see section Discover a Single Device later in this chapter, incoming traps, and through the
