Devices
The Devices menu supports all the device-related operations, discovery, firmware upgrades, file
storage management, and configuration. This chapter gives you detailed information on the
sub-menus under Devices tab that help you manage devices on the system.
Configuration, File Storage and Firmware update menus are only available with Samsung devices. Samsung
private MIB needs to be supported to use Configuration and File Storage (See "Samsung private MIB" on
page 89).

• Group / List overview
• Discovery overview

• File Storage overview
Group / List overview
SyncThru™ Admin 5 is a group based management program rather than individually based. If you want to use SyncThru™
Admin 5 much more efficiently, group organization is recommended. In the Group / List , you can group the devices and
see them in a list containing useful information like device status, IP address, and more.
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Devices menu > Group/List.
You can see Group list panels on the left side and the Devices List panel on the bottom middle of the page.
