MetaConsole Client for Canon Devices 5
Specifying IP Address Ranges to Exclude from Device Discovery
If a range of addresses is not specified as described above under Specifying IP Address
Ranges to Include in Device Discovery, MetaConsole does not discover devices with IP
addresses in that range. So in general, it is not necessary to explicitly exclude a range of
addresses. However, excluding a range can be useful. For example, if you want
MetaConsole to discover devices between 10.0.0.40 and 10.0.0.80 except for 10.0.0.52
through 10.0.0.56, you can include the large range but exclude the small range.
To exclude a range of addresses from device discovery:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Canon Devices node and the Configuration
node, and click Blocked Ranges.
2. Under Add New Blocked Range, in the Start Address boxes, type the lowest IP
address in the desired range.
3. In the End Address boxes, type the highest IP address in the desired range.
4. Click Add.
To remove a range from the list of excluded ranges:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Canon Devices node and the Configuration
node, and click Blocked Ranges.
2. Under Blocked Discovery Range List, click the start address or end address of the
range to be removed.
3. Click Remove.
Manually Adding or Removing Individual Devices
In addition to specifying address ranges for automatic device discovery, you can
manually add addresses to the list of discovered devices.
To manually add a device to the device list:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Canon Devices node and the Configuration
node, and click Manual Discovery.
2. In the Device Address boxes, type the device’s IP address.
3. Click Add.
To delete a manually added device from the device list:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Canon Devices node and the Configuration
node, and click Manual Discovery.
2. Under Manual Device List, click the IP address you want to delete.
3. Click Remove.
To delete all manually added devices from the device list:
1. In the navigation pane, expand the Canon Devices node and the Configuration
node, and click Manual Discovery.
2. Click Remove All.
