However it does have the following restrictions:
- Only Ax4000 and M75 are detected.
-
The broadcast may be limited to the LAN (depends on router
configuration).
b) Scan via Range of IP Addresses
IP addresses tested by AxRM depend on both the range and the network class:
- Class C: the beginning and the end of the range are given by byte 4.
- Class B: the beginning and the end of the range are given by byte 4. But
for each value of byte 3, AxRM tests all values of byte 4.
With this method the following actions are performed on each IP address
- Address pinged to check device presence.
- SNMP request (if enabled): obtains MAC address and firmware version.
- RSH command (if enabled): obtains MAC address and firmware version.
- In the event of problems with the RSH command the MAC address can
also be obtained from the ARP table (only for LAN).
The time taken to execute this command will be relatively long
c) Scan via IP Addresses contained in a text file
The actions performed for this method are the same than the previous method.
