Hey all,  I've been using Ds 6.9 for many years now for imaging HP Thin clients that are used as a kisok.  We are now going to be deploying many many more of these for all different types of functions and in many different locations.

I don't think this is possible in 6.9 but can you create a scope based on an IP range that if someone picks up a Thin Client from location A and moved it to location B I would need to to dynamamically move in the tree view on the console...  make sense?   Is this an option in 7.1?

Thanks!

Thanks Palvaran, I was hoping it wouldn't come to having to use NS, but if I need to then thats what I will do.  I'm still trying to get my hands on the DS 7.1 beta before though.

The DS comes as part of the NS on CMS7. Quite a bit different, Im struggling through the 'How to' videos at the moment.
