Configuring the VLS appliance with the VLS Discovery tool

Use the VLS discovery utility to set the network settings on an unconfigured VLS, and to view the network

settings of configured devices. The VLS discovery utility looks for all the devices on the same subnet as

the Windows computer on which it is running. It then lists the devices and indicates whether they are

configured (have an IP address) or are unconfigured.
To set the network settings using the VLS discovery utility:

1.

Insert the VLS Documentation CD into the CD drive on a Windows system that is on the same

subnet as the VLS.
The CD auto-launches.

2.

Click VLS discovery utility.
The Scanning for Devices window displays (see

Figure 19

).

Figure 19 Scanning for devices

The VLS discovery utility opens and lists all the devices it sees on the subnet (

Figure 20

).

The Configured box for a device is checked if the device has an IP address.
The device type, host name, IP address (if available), and serial number are displayed for each

device listed.
