Search for an available Fiery Server

If you do not know the DNS name or IP address of a Fiery Server, you can search your local area network for a Fiery Server. You can either search within the subnet that contains the local computer, or search within a specific subnet or IP address range.

  1. Click Server > Connect New or click the green plus sign  in the Servers list.
  2. In the Connect to Server dialog box, click the Search icon (magnifying glass) to open the Search window.
  3. Select the search type.
    • To automatically search for all Fiery Servers within the subnet to which the local computer belongs, select Auto Search.
    • To search for Fiery Servers within a specific subnet range, select Subnet.
      • Enter the subnet address to indicate the subnet range to include. Enter 0 in the octets where any number is acceptable. For example, 10.100.10.0 will find 10.100.10.1 through 10.100.10.255.
      • Enter the subnet mask to indicate any subnet ranges to exclude. Enter 0 in the octets where nothing is excluded. For example, 255.255.255.0 will exclude everything but the indicated subnet address in the first three octets, and will allow anything in the fourth octet (such as 10.100.10.30).
    • To search for Fiery Servers within a specific IP address range, select IP Range.
      • Enter the start of the IP address range in From IP. To include the beginning of an octet, enter 0. For example, 10.100.10.0.
      • Enter the end of the IP address range in To IP. To include through the end of an octet, enter 255. For example, 10.100.10.255.
  4. Click Go.

    Any available Fiery Server that matches the search criteria is shown. You can filter the search result list by typing a keyword into the Filter by keyword field.

  5. Select the Fiery Server from the results list and click Add to add it to the Servers list.
