ProSafe Gigabit 8 Port VPN Firewall FVS318G Reference Manual
VPN Firewall and Network Management 6-33
v1.1, August 2010
Monitoring Attached Devices
The LAN Groups screen contains a table of all IP devices that the VPN firewall has discovered on
the local network.
To view the LAN Groups screen:
1. Select Network Configuration from the main menu and LAN Settings from the submenu.
2. Select the LAN Groups tab. The LAN Groups screen displays.
The Known PCs and Devices table lists the entries in the Network Database., which is an
automatically-maintained list of LAN-attached devices. PCs and other LAN devices become
known by the following methods:
DHCP Client Requests. By default, the DHCP server in the VPN firewall is enabled, and will
accept and respond to DHCP client requests from PCs and other network devices. These
requests also generate an entry in the database. Because of this, leaving the DHCP Server
feature enabled (on the LAN Setup screen) is strongly recommended.
Scanning the Network. The local network is scanned using standard methods such as ARP.
The scan will detect active devices that are not DHCP clients. However, sometimes the name
of the PC or device cannot be accurately determined and will be shown as unknown.
Manually Adding Devices. You can enter information in the Add Known PCs and Devices
section and click Add to manually add a device to the database.
