Specifying the Search Preference 0
You can specify one or more of the following search methods:
Broadcast SNMP
This method sends out an SNMP broadcast message to your network,
reporting on Canon printers and standard MIB devices that respond
to the message. This method is best used on a network that does not
block broadcast messages.
Ping SNMP
This method directs an SNMP message to the specified range of IP
addresses, reporting on Canon printers and standard MIB devices
that respond to the message. This method is best used on a network
that blocks broadcast messages, or for networks that stretch over
several routers.
You select both methods if your network environment would benefit
from a combination of the discovery methods. For example: Your
network environment consists of a combination of:
A local network that responds to broadcast messages
Routers or a series of routers (hops) that block broadcast messages, IP
addresses that have different subnet masks, or Canon printers that are
too far away to respond to a broadcast in time.
