| Network Scan | By clicking this button, the system will scan the entire network and list all identified devices, including their IP addresses, MAC addresses, and vendor information. Initially, during deployment, you can use the DHCP option to identify devices, then later assign appropriate static IPs. The results will be categorized into three broad categories: - Active: Devices that were found in the recent search and are currently active in the network. - Inactive: Devices that were not found during the recent search, possibly indicating they are switched off or no longer part of the network, helping to troubleshoot any network issues. - No Display: Devices marked as irrelevant to the deployment (e.g., printers, routers, or computers) and hidden using the edit option to avoid clutter in the display. |
| Network Device Mapping | This option helps identify devices on the network at any given time and allows users to mark irrelevant devices as No Display in both active and inactive lists, reducing clutter. By displaying only relevant devices, users can quickly focus on key information, such as which devices have gone offline, or which are functioning correctly within the network. |

| Purpose | This option helps identify devices on the network at any given time and allows users to mark irrelevant devices as No Display in both active and inactive lists, reducing clutter. By displaying only relevant devices, users can quickly focus on key information, such as which devices have gone offline, or which are functioning correctly within the network. |
| Extension | This is an optional field where customers can enter the extension assigned to a device. This feature aids in troubleshooting by allowing users to quickly check the status of any non-functioning extension. |
| Remarks | The remarks field is an optional entry that allows customers to store relevant information that may be useful during troubleshooting. This could include details such as the name of the extension holder or any other pertinent information that aids in identifying and resolving issues. |
| Display | This is a mandatory entry allows users to differentiate between relevant and irrelevant devices in the context of our deployment. For example, devices such as printers, routers, computers, and laptops should be marked as no display since they are not relevant to our deployment or troubleshooting processes. This classification helps to keep both the active and inactive lists uncluttered, ensuring that critical information is easily accessible during troubleshooting. |
