Summary
If you are running CrossTec across multiple TCP/IP Subnets; you need to configure CrossTec to use the additional subnets when performing a browse of the Network.
Details
When adding a subnet you can either add a broadcast address or a range of addresses.
To calculate your broadcast address Click Here
Adding a range of Addresses is particularly useful if the subnet is behind a router that has UDP broadcasts disabled. This would normally prevent the Control from finding the required Clients but by specifying the required IP address range a broadcast packet will be sent to each machine. (Only Class C address ranges can be entered)
Example 194.150.160.1 - 254
To Change the browsing setting
For CrossTec Remote Control 1) In the control choose {Network} {Configure} 2) Choose the Connectivity\TCP/IP Settings 3) In the Browsing section click on the [Settings] Button 4) In the "Configure TCP/IP Client Browsing" Dialog choose the [Add..] button. 5) Add your local subnet's broadcast address ( e.g. 10.0.0.255 ) 6) Add the either the broadcast address of the network or a range of IP addresses that you wish to browse across.
For CrossTec SchoolVue 1) In the Tutor choose {School} {Configuration} 2) Choose the Connectivity Settings 3) In the Browsing section click on the [Settings] Button 4) In the "Configure TCP/IP Client Browsing" Dialog choose the [Add..] button. 5) Add your local subnet's broadcast address ( e.g. 10.0.0.255 ) 6) Add the either the broadcast address of the network or a range of IP addresses that you wish to browse across.
Once you have finished adding the Subnets and clicked on OK, the control will re-initialise and you will then be able to browse over all of the subnets that you have chosen.
**** NOTE: It is vital that you include your own Subnets broadcast address or you will no longer be able to browse across your own network. ****
