Search for an available Fiery server

If you do not know the server name or IP address of a Fiery server, you can search in your local area network for a Fiery server. You can search within the subnet containing the local computer or within a specific subnet or IP address range.

  1. Click the plus sign in the Servers list.
  2. If the Add Fiery Server window does not display the results of an automatic search of the local subnet, or if you do not have a server name or IP address, click Advanced Search.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • To search for Fiery servers within a specific IP address range, select IP Range from the Search menu.
      • Enter the start of the IP address range in From. 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. To include through the end of an octet, enter 255. For example, 10.100.10.255.
    • To search for Fiery servers within a specific subnet range, select Subnet from the Search menu.
      • 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 you do not want to exclude anything. For example, 255.255.255.0 will exclude everything but the indicated subnet address in the first three octets and allow anything in the fourth octet, such as 10.100.10.30.
  4. Click Go.

    The search results display any available Fiery Server that matches the criteria. 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, click OK, and then click Add to add it to the Servers list.
