USING THE MICROCHIP ETHERNET DISCOVERER TOOL

The Microchip Ethernet Discoverer Tool is a PC application that aids in locating Ethernet devices on the network.
When the "Discover Devices" button is clicked, this application will transmit a broadcast UDP packet containing the
message, "Discovery: Who is out there?" on the local network to port 30303. If any embedded devices with the
Microchip Announce protocol enabled are connected to the network, they will respond with a UDP packet containing
their host name, MAC address, and other info such as the model number and firmware version.
If you are unable to view the network setup with a serial or USB connection, this utility can be used to find the
current IP address of any attached Aeroflex Weinschel devices. You can then use TELNET to connect to the device
and change the address using the SET IPADDR command.
