You can discover devices on your network by using the following methods:

Quick discovery. Discovers devices without using a discovery profile. This method is a 
quick and easy discovery method but gives you limited control over the discovery 
process.

Regular discovery. Filters the devices on your network through a discovery profile that 
you must configure first. This method gives you more control than the quick discovery 
method but is a bit more complicated.

With both methods, the application can discover wired devices, wireless devices, NETGEAR 
devices, and third-party devices that support standard SNMP MIBs.

The application can discover and monitor NETGEAR firewalls over the WAN. Firewalls can 
have either a static WAN IP address, dynamic WAN IP address, or WAN host name. If a 
firewall uses a WAN host name, the firewall must have DNS enabled.

By default, the application lets you discover up to 200

 

devices. For 

information about discovering more than 200

 

devices, contact your 

NETGEAR sales contact.

For wireless access points (APs), the nature of the AP determines whether the application 
can discover the AP:

Standalone AP. An AP that is not controlled by another device and that operates in 
standalone mode. This type of AP is also referred to as a Fat AP. The application can 
discover and manage standalone APs just like any other network device that the 
application supports.

Controller-managed AP. An AP that a NETGEAR WC7520 or WC9500 wireless 
controller manages. This type of AP is also referred to as a Fit AP. After the application 
discovers a wireless controller, it displays the controller-managed APs in the device table. 
In this indirect way, the application can discover the controller-managed APs but cannot 
manage them. You cannot back up or restore the configuration, upgrade the firmware, or 
delete the access points from the application. Controller-managed APs are not subtracted 
from the number of devices that the license of the application supports. The license of the 
application ignores the controller-managed APs.

Quick Discovery is a quick and easy discovery method but gives you limited control over the 
discovery process.
