To delete a community name from the list box:
1. Click on the Delete button while a community name is selected to
delete a community name from the list box.
Adding and Deleting IP Address Ranges
The Þrst time you use the Discover tool, the IP Address Ranges list
box will be empty. To add IP Address Ranges to the list box:
1. In the From: text box, enter the starting IP address of the range
you wish to define.
2. In the To: text box, enter the ending IP address of the range you
wish to define.
TIP
You can rearrange the list so that the community names are listed in a more
logical order (e.g., decreasing order of use) by using the Up and Down
buttons located below the list box. You may only move one entry at a time.
!
CAUTION
If you double-click on a highlighted item it will be deleted from the list box
and from the corresponding database; however, it will remain in the
Community Name text field where it can be edited and re-added to the
database.
NOTES
You may enter IP addresses with 0 or 255 in the address, but if a device is
associated with that address it will not be discovered. For example, if you set
the IP address range from 132.177.118.0 to 132.177.118.255, devices with
the IP addresses 132.177.118.0 and 132.177.118.255 will not be discovered.
If you have devices at these addresses you must add them manually.
Also, the From: address must not be a higher address than the To: address in
any IP address range, and both the From: and To: addresses must belong to
the same network class.
