2: Setting Up the Edge Devices
12 Verint Video Solutions
The scenarios with the multicast method are:
SConfigurator can locate devices attached to remote
networks (device 6, provided they share the same VSIP
port), but not through the Internet.
SConfigurator cannot find the APIPA devices (devices 1 and
5), since they require the Detect All Units on LAN setting
available only with the broadcast method.
The common port helps locate the lost devices (devices 3
and 4).
The scenarios with the unicast method are:
Each device is discovered individually. Typically, you use
unicast when the device cannot be located with the
broadcast or multicast methods.
SConfigurator can detect all devices sharing the same VSIP
port, even those accessible only through Internet
(device 9), provided you know their individual IP
addresses.
SConfigurator cannot locate the APIPA devices (devices 1,
5, and 8) since they require the Detect All Units on LAN
setting available only with the broadcast method.
The common port helps locate the lost devices (devices 3,
4, and 7).
In the Units tab, you use the Discover button to find many
devices with the broadcast or multicast method (depending on
the Discovery IP Address setting in the program options). To
discover a single device with the unicast method, you use the
Add function. Be aware however that most unicast-discovered
devices will disappear from the Units box the next time you
click Discover, since the list is emptied before the broadcast or
multicast command is launched.
