You can facilitate the collection and management of various information about networked devices by implementing device management software, such as imageWARE Enterprise Management Console *, into the network. Information such as device settings, Address Books, and error logs is retrieved and distributed via the server computer.
If the machine is connected to such a network, imageWARE searches the network for the machine by using protocols such as Service Location Protocol (SLP) to gather information from the machine, including the power status. SLP settings can be specified via the Remote UI.

Select the [Respond to Discovery] check box and specify the required
settings.  |
|
[Respond to Discovery]
|
Select the check box to set the machine to respond to imageWARE multicast discovery packets and enable monitoring by imageWARE.
