DCP Discovery

On this page, you can select an interface and search for devices that are reachable via the
interface and support DCP. DCP Discovery only searches for devices located in the same
subnet as the interface. The reachable devices are listed in a table. In the table you can check
and adapt the network parameters of the devices. To identify and configure the devices the
Discovery Configuration Protocol (DCP) is used.
Note
DCP Discovery
The function is only available with the VLAN associated with the TIA interface. You can
configure the TIA interface with "Layer 3 > Subnets > Configuration".
Requirement:
To adapt network parameters, DCP requires write access to the device. If access is write-
protected, the network parameters cannot be configured.
On the SCALANCE devices you configure the access in "System > Configuration".

● Interface
Select the required interface.
● Discover
