When you add an nControl device to your design, you can select SNMP Discovery. This allows you to dynamically locate and identify SNMP enabled devices on your network. The discovery process will retrieve a set of information from each device that includes the MAC address, SNMP Object ID, name, location and contact.
The SNMP Agent Discovery device allows you to apply search criteria to the discovery information so that you can identify specific devices on the network by their SNMP configuration, rather than by their IP address. This is useful, for example, when you are using dynamic IP address assignment via BOOTP or DHCP.
Note: In order to use the Agent Discovery device, you must select the SNMP Discovery check box on the device properties of the nControl or nTouch 180 device.
