banjo22 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Can someone please explain how the Duma sorts Online and Offline devices? I'm seeing around 40 devices currently 'online' in device manager, however I have around 200 devices in my network. I have many Unifi APs and WIFI disabled on the R3. I just want to know why some are classed as online, and others aren't, one device might show as online, another offline and both be connected to the same Unifi AP. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzy Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Hi! It depends on the traffic between the devices and the R3! A device without traffic will be recognized as offline... An AP or switch with a DHCP IP will also be recognized as offline because they act as bypassed devices. For a managed AP or switch, the best is to disable DHCP on their GUI and give them a static DHCP IP (R3 range or not). This will allow you to keep their GUI access by keeping them silent at the R3 level. banjo22 and Netduma Fraser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banjo22 Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 Thank you. That explains it then. The APs don't have DHCP, I was always confused by them never showing as online as they are passing traffic a lot. Fuzy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
