- Neon Responder Installation Instructions
-
- This folder contains a small initialization file (INIT) called "Neon Responder".
- Some of the most advanced features of LANsurveyor rely on the Neon Responder's
- presence on MacOS machines on your network. This Responder is not, however,
- required in order for LANsurveyor to map and manage your network.
-
- For MacOS nodes running the Neon Responder, LANsurveyor can query for:
-
- • Complete network configuration information for both TCP/IP and AppleTalk,
- including IP and Ethernet addresses and Open Transport or MacTCP version
- information.
-
- • System and Hardware profiles, such as MacOS version, CPU type, installed
- RAM, mounted volume capacity and free space, and much more.
-
- • Software profiles which include lists of applications, Control Panels,
- Extensions, Fonts, Startup Items and their version numbers. These lists
- eliminate repetitive, manual tasks like spotting Extension conflicts,
- finding outdated software versions, and identifying missing fonts.
-
- • Hardware and Software inventory reports and asset management through
- the use of predefined and user-customizable reports.
-
- • Quit and launch applications remotely.
-
- • Distribute files and folders.
-
- • Send instant messages across the network.
-
- • Shut down and restart remotely.
-
- To install the Neon Responder on a MacOS machine, simply drag the
- Responder's icon to the System folder, then restart. Under MacOS
- System 7 or later, the Neon Responder will automatically be placed in the
- Extensions folder. If you have installed the Neon Responder properly, the
- following icon will appear when the MacOS machine is restarted:

-
-
- Your Neon Responder license allows you to install the Neon Responder on up to
- 20 MacOS machines.
-
- You can purchase additional Neon Responders from Neon Software in quantities
- of 25, 50 or 100 at a time. Site license pricing is also available. Contact Neon
- Software or the Neon Software international distributor near you for more
- information on expanding LANsurveyor's capabilities through additional Responder
- licenses.
