Static Device Management
Static devices are devices that must be specified by using a static IP address because they are not located on the same LAN, because your LAN does not permit broadcasts, or because you are using a multilayer LAN. Static devices cannot be detected dynamically by KCenter.
You can add, suppress, and manage static devices by clicking on the Static Devices button in the Devices panel or in the Devices menu. This displays the list of static devices:
In this dialog box you can add, modify, or suppress devices. Click Add ... or Modify... to open the following dialog box:
Specify the static device by entering its Host Name or IP Address.
Note: In case of remote device located over the Internet behing a NAT router, you must fill in here the public IP address, or host name, i.e., the Internet address, and NOT the local IP address set up in the device web management page, that applies to the LAN connection.
Note: You can also map a local device to a static device by entering its local IP address, or by selecting it in the current detected device list.
If you want KCenter to receive this device radius accounting messages, check Enable radius Accounting Log, and fill in Radius Port and Radius Secret as set up in the related device management.
Note: By checking Enable Radius Accounting Log, the device is automatically added to the Radius Client list. See Radius Client Management.
