9.4. Links

The “Links” view lists the websites of the devices on the network. This page stores the links for devices 
that have already been used in the past. In addition, by clicking the “Discover Devices” button, you 
can also search for devices on the remote network. A link is generated automatically for each device 
found. Most devices, such as printers, DSL routers or IP cameras are recorded in the process. From 
a technical perspective, the Simple Service Discover Protocol (or SSDP for short) is used here.
Using the “Manually add link” dialog, you can add links to devices that are not found automatically 
and save them to the list.
