Overview:

This article will guide you through using CobraNet Discovery Tool to set the IP address of the CobraNet card in a device.

Setup CobraNet Discovery:

• Go to tools>Preferences>Check Enable SNMP
  
• Go to tools>Options>Select the network interface connected to the CobraNet Network.
• The auto assignment can be used in cases where the new paging station device doesn't have an IP address. This will enable a type of DHCP so be careful using that on networks where some devices use automatic/DHCP because this will hand out IP addresses.
