Management Device Timeout Settings
Use the Management Device Timeout Settings task to specify the timeout settings that InfraStruXure 
Central will use when attempting to communicate with devices on your network. InfraStruXure Central 
comes pre-configured with timeout settings that will work for most networks. However, depending on 
your network topology and architecture, you might need to create IP address-specific or IP address range-
specific timeout settings.
When you start the Management Device Timeout Settings task a table is displayed that contains all 
currently defined timeout settings. The table contains the following information about each timeout 
setting:
Field
Description
IP range
The IP address or IP address range for this security setting. The 
user name and password will be used only for devices that are 
connected to your network at the specified IP address or at an IP 
address that falls within the specified range. To specify an IP 
address range, use the asterisk as a wildcard value in the IP 
address (for example, specifying an IP address of 192.168.1.* 
will result in this security entry being used whenever 
InfraStruXure Central attempts to log into and manage any 
device with an IP address of 192.168.1.1 through 
192.168.1.255) or use a hyphenated value to define a specific 
range of values for part of the IP address (for example, 
192.168.1.1-20 means that you want InfraStruXure Central to 
periodically check for the presence of a device on all IP 
addresses between 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.20).
Port
The IP port used to communicate with devices in the specified 
IP Range.
User name
The user name that will be used when attempting to manage a 
device with the IP address specified.
Password 
The password that will be used when attempting to manage a 
device with the IP address specified.
Field
Description
IP range
The range of IP addresses that the timeout settings apply to. An 
IP address range is defined by either using an asterisk to indicate 
a “wildcard” portion of the IP address (for example, 192.168.1.* 
means that the timeout settings apply to devices on all IP 
addresses between 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.255) or by 
using a hyphenated value to define a specific range of values for 
part of the IP address (for example, 192.168.1.1-20 means that 
the timeout settings apply to all devices on all IP addresses 
between 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.20).
