Creating a
Network Group in
AXIS ThinWizard
The network group concept is the corner stone of AXIS ThinWizard. By dividing
your network into network groups, you can monitor your print servers more
efficiently. The scope of each network group is determined by the Axis server
types and IP address ranges that are included. You can create as many network
groups as you want.
Follow the instructions below to create a network group:
1. Click Network Groups in the AXIS ThinWizard main menu.
2. Click Create.
3. The Create Network Group page opens. Type the name of the network group,
enter the IP address ranges and Axis server types that should be included. If
you are only interested in managing print servers, deselect all options but the
print server option.
4. Click OK to create the network group.
You can edit the properties of each network group from the Network Groups
page. Simply select the network group from the list and use one of the
Edit,
Copy or Remove commands.
