Broadcast Search

If Broadcast Search is selected, a dialog will pop up as shown below. You can simply click “OK” to

broadcast to all devices in the network using the 255.255.255.255 IP address. Please make sure that

your switch is allowed a device to broadcast to that address. If not, you need to use “Search by IP

Address” or “Search by MAC address” function as described next.

Search by IP Address

“Search by IP Address” lets you search a device in a range of IP addresses such as in your private subnet

to which the device is connected. The program will sequentially make a contact with each IP address in

the range; therefore, it should work in any subnet network.
