Alternative Method for Setting Desired IP Parameters on FaxFinder Server 
If the FaxFinder Server is on the same subnet as the Administration PC, you can set its IP parameters 
using the Multi-Tech Device Manager’s Auto-Discovery function (see Chapter 8 concerning installation of 
the Device Manager software).   
   In Device Manager, go to Edit | Auto-Discover Devices.  The Auto Discovery Monitor dialog box will 
appear.
