VBDirectory is configured to pick up Management 
SAPs transmitted by VBricks.  The default address 
from which the Management SAPs are obtained is 
224.2.133.134, port 9876.  If the default address from 
which the Management SAP is received is changed in 
VBDirectory without changing the SAP address to 
which the Management SAP is sent by the VBrick, the 
Management SAP will no longer be visible.   

The SAP Timeout Value specifies the length of time a 
Management SAP will remain on the list after it stops 
being transmitted.  This configuration option works in 
tandem with the Retransmit Time value in the 
Management Screen of the VBrick.  If the SAP 
Timeout Value is smaller than the Retransmit Time, 
then that VBrick's Management SAP will keep 
intermittently appear on VBDirectory's list.  Take this into account  
when changing the SAP Timeout Value. The default value is set at 25 seconds.  

Filter 

It is possible to filter the list through the Group Name, Host Name or IP Address by selecting 
one of the radio buttons and clicking on FILTER c.  To return to the entire list, click the 
same button, which will have toggled to UNFILTER d.
