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:

Then select the LAN Groups tab and the LAN Groups screen displays.
3.
The
Known PCs and Devices
database 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 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 (in the LAN Setup menu) 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.
