Choose a Pano Device Discovery Method

Pano devices need to be discovered before they can be controlled by the Pano Manager. Once discovered, Pano devices receive a name of PanoDevice-PanoDeviceMacAddress. For example, PanoDevice-00-1c-02-40-17-95. As discussed in Set Up Collections with Device Restrictions, you’ll eventually decide on a naming convention for your Pano devices to make discovery easier.

There are two ways that the Pano Manager can discovery Pano devices:

•	For a small deployment (or during a trial), one of the broadcast/probe methods is the easiest option to set up.

•	For a larger-scale production deployment, DHCP-assisted discovery is the best solution since it is the most efficient on the network. This is the most common method for deploying in production.

Next Step(s): Do one of the following:

•	(Broadcast/Probe Method) Set Up Pano Device Discovery

•	(DHCP Method) Set Up Pano Device Discovery
