Xerox CentreWare Management Pack for Microsoft Operations Manager Support & Software Guida Utente

Configuration Utility 

A Ping Sweep discovery sends SNMP GET 
REQ packets to a collection of IP addresses 
on your network to locate printers. This option 
will attempt to query all the IP addresses that 
you specify, regardless of the printer type or 
the validity of the address. You can configure 
a Ping Sweep by entering a single address or 
an address range. 

1.  Start the Xerox Discovery Utility: Start > 

Programs > Xerox > Xerox 
CentreWare Management Pack for 
MOM > Discovery Configuration.   

2.  From the menu on the left select the 

Ping Sweep discovery task type. 

3. In 

the 

Select Sweep Task text box, enter a name for the discovery that describes the type of 

discovery (e.g. - a location or subnet description). 

4. Select 

the 

Create button. The task will be created. (If needed, click the Delete button to delete any 

selected task.) 

5. Set 

the 

Time Out Interval and Number of Retries as needed, then click the Update button to save 

the changes. Keep in mind that network traffic will increase and performance will decrease as the 
values for Time Out Interval and Number of Retries increases.  

6.  Next, define the devices to discover with this task. Select the Single or Range button, then enter the 

IP address or range of addresses you would like to add. Multiple entries of ranges and single 
addresses can be added. Click the Add button after each entry. If needed, select any of the entries 
in the Device Listing area, and click Remove to delete an item from the list. 

7. Select 

Apply to save the Ping Sweep settings when you are done.
