Basically, Broadcast and SLP are the discovery methods with the highest speed while IP Range and CSV Import work slowly. If you have a speed problem with discovering devices, check the discovery strategy recommended in the Discovery section (See "Discovery Setting" on page 37). In addition, you can use another options for discovery: passive discovery settings. From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click the Settings menu > Settings > Device Management > Discovery. Passive SLP discovery or passive mDNS discovery works faster without the network traffic issue. For IP Range, refer to the followings: • IP Range discovery checks every IP address. If the range includes many unused IP addresses, SyncThru™ Admin 5 will check those addresses, which causes the discovery time problem. If you can ask your network administrator about the IP addressing schemes and network environments, or if you already know them, this discovery can be faster. • You can configure the specific range of IP addresses according to your network environments. • If you want to use multiple, distinct IP Range settings, you can schedule your own discoveries (See"Discovery methods" on page 37 ). SyncThru™ Admin 5 recommends you to run discoveries during off-hours if possible. However, all the devices should be turned on in this case. Frequently Asked Questions_ 87
