In this dialog box, you specify how LANconfig behaves and acts when started.
- Search for new devices at startup: With this option activated, the program searches predefined networks for new devices each time the program is started.
Note: This procedure may take some time in major installations with a large number of devices, or it may undesirable for the program to try to establish contact to the devices.
- In the local network: If this option is activated, the program searches the local network for devices each time it is started. It waits for a response for the time set here.
- In the following remote networks: With this option activated, the program searches the remote networks for devices each time the program is started. The networks to be searched through are defined in the list that follows.
- Extend search to managed APs: Fully managed access points (APs) are normally excluded from the search as their configurations are completely managed by a WLAN controller. Select this option if you wish to find fully managed APs regardless of this.
Note: This option is meaningless if your network does not contain WLAN controllers or managed APs.
