Three methods are available to scan the network:

- An SNMP broadcast is sent to the entire network.
- RSH and/or SNMP commands are sent to a range of IP addresses.
- RSH and/or SNMP commands are sent to IP addresses contained in a

text file.

For these methods the setting 'Retrieve name from IP" can be used to obtain
the device’s DNS name. Tick this parameter only when one DNS server is
available or the scan may take a very long time.

a) Scan via SNMP

The main benefit of SNMP is its speed. One SNMP request is sent to all the
terminals simultaneously.
