To open the "Configure Devices" screen, under the "Devices" link in Vivi Central, select the "Configure Devices" link and then select your organisation name.

The "Configure Devices" screen gives a quick snapshot of all of the Boxes in all of the organisations that you manage.

The information includes:

  • MAC Address – This is the unique identifier of the Box. Clicking on the MAC address of a Box will open the Box overview screen a Box display name, room and Web Console password can be updated.

  • Room – Shows which room the Box is assigned to.

  • Location – The location that the Box belongs in.

  • IP Address – The IP address of the Box. Clicking on the IP address will open the Web Console on the Box.

  • Current Version – Shows the firmware version of the Box. If the firmware version is out of date, an orange warning image will show that an updated firmware version is available.

  • Status – The status of the Box.

  • Update Progress – During a bulk firmware update, the upgrade status of each Box is shown in this column.

The "Configure Devices" screen is the main starting window for managing your fleet of Vivi Boxes.

At the top of the screen, there is an option to "Update Firmware" and another button (labelled "…") which loads the bulk configuration menu. These buttons are not activated until at least one Box is selected.

This screen also allows you to select the Boxes to update, restart or configure. The list can be filtered by location by using the drop-down box at the top of the screen. There is also the option to select all Boxes, or to make your own selection of Boxes.
