Ricoh A2 - Registering a Device to the RS Center System

Searching for Devices
You can use the RC Gate to search for devices on a network by using the discovery function and to
detect monitoring and control target devices.
Before using the discovery function, set search conditions such as the IP address range, model name,
and status.
The following two methods are available when using discovery on a network:
Network Search
A specified IP address range is used for network search. Each of the IP addresses within the IP
address range will be accessed using SNMP.
Broadcast
SNMP broadcast is performed for all devices on a local or specified network so as to detect
devices that are connected to the network.
• The discovery function can detect devices that are compatible with Printer MIB v2 (RFC 3805),
Printer MIB (RFC 1759), MIB-II (RFC 1213), and Host Resource MIB (RFC 2790).
