Verify Initial Configuration of Devices and Other Servers

Before doing anything on the platform, make sure the devices you are going to use are correctly mounted and connected to the network as specified by the manufacturers. Such initial configurations are required in order to connect the devices to the platform via network.

Add Devices to Platform and Configure Area

The platform can quickly scan your network for relevant devices, and add them. Or you can add the devices by inputting the required information manually. The devices added should be organized into areas for convenient management. Refer to Device and Server Management and Area Management.
