Configuring NPort Search Utility
The Broadcast Search function is used to locate all NPort W2004s that are connected to the same
LAN as your computer. After locating an NPort W2004, you will be able to change the IP address.
Since the Broadcast Search function searches by MAC address and not IP address, all NPort
W2004s connected to the LAN will be located, regardless of whether or not they are part of the
same subnet as the host.
1. Open the NPort Search Utility and then click on the Search icon.
2. The Searching window indicates the progress of the search.
3. When the search is complete, the NPort W2004 units that were located will be displayed in
the NPort Search Utility window.
