Adding and discovering console switches 30
If no new console switches are found or if you pressed Stop during the add process, the Discover
Wizard was unsuccessful window appears. Click Finish to exit. You must add the console switch
manually. For more information, see the section, "Adding a console switch without an assigned IP
address (on page 21)."
NOTE: If you are using Windows XP SP2 and are trying to discover a broad range of IP addresses and the
device you are trying to discover does not display, limit the number of TCP threads to ten.
5. Select one or more console switches to add from the Console Switch Found: box, and click the >
button to move the selection to the Console Switches to add: box. Repeat for all the console switches
that you want to add.
6. Click Next. The Adding Console Switches window appears. A progress bar appears while new
console switches are added to the list.
When all of the selected consoles have been added to the local database, the Completing the
Discover Wizard window appears. Click Finish to exit and return to the main window. The new
console switches appear in the list view.
If one or more console switches could not be added to the local database for any reason, including
if you pressed Stop during the add process, the Discover Wizard Not All Console Switches Added
page appears. This page lists all of the console switches that you selected and the status for each.
The status is indicated if a console switch was added to the local database and if not, why the
process failed. Click Done when you are finished reviewing the list.
NOTE: If a console switch already exists in the local database with the same IP address as a discovered
console switch, then the discovered console switch is ignored and is not displayed on the next Discover
Wizard window.
