Configure the Autofind Hubs option

The Autofind Hubs feature in the AnywhereUSB Manager enables the Manager to create a list of Hubs to which the Manager may be able to connect. The Manager repeatedly reaches out to the network to create this list, based on the interval specified in the Preferences dialog.

In some cases the Manager discovers multiple addresses for one Hub and makes duplicate connection attempts. The Manager will not connect twice to a Hub. When the Manager discovers it is already connected to a Hub and connects a second time, it disconnects the second connection.

Note For detailed information about the Autofind Hubs option, see Autofind Hubs and Include IPv6 Addrs in Autofind options.

The status of the Autofind Hubs option determines which Hubs can automatically connect to the Manager.

To configure the Autofind Hubs option:

1. Open the AnywhereUSB Manager.
2. Choose File > Preferences. The Preferences dialog appears.
3. Click the Setup tab.
4. Determine the Autofind Hubs configuration.
   • Enable: Hubs are found automatically. This is the default.

     Note The list of Hubs that is automatically found is influenced by the configuration of the Include IPv6 Addrs in Autofind option. Verify the status of the Include IPv6 Addrs in Autofind option.

   • Disable: Hubs are not found automatically.
5. Click Save.
