VMOS Magic Box supports two ways to add hosts to the PC client: Automatic Discovery and Manual Addition.
✅ Recommendations
Same subnet recommends using automatic discovery for quick identification and connection to hosts.
Cross-subnet deployment or remote use, manual addition is more flexible, suitable for enterprise environments.
Method 1: Automatic Host Discovery (Recommended)
Applicable Scenario: When PC client and host are on the same local network (same subnet), the system can automatically discover host devices.
Operation Steps:
1. Ensure host and PC are connected to the same router or switch network.
2. Open PC client, enter the "Host" interface.
3. The system will automatically scan devices on the same subnet and display online hosts.
4. When host status shows Online, you can perform cloud machine management and connection operations.
Tips: If not automatically displayed, please check:
Whether host and PC are on the same subnet;
Whether host network is normal;
Whether local network discovery service is blocked by firewall.
Method 2: Manual Host Addition
Applicable Scenario: When PC client and host are not on the same subnet (such as cross-subnet, different router environments), you can add manually.
Operation Steps:
1. Ensure PC client can Ping the host IP address.
2. On the host device, view the host IP address through the LED display screen.
3. Open PC Client → Cloud Machine → Add Host.
4. Enter the host IP address in the input box, click "Confirm" to add
5. After successful addition, the host will appear in the host list with status showing Online.
Tips: If addition fails, please verify network connectivity again (Ping test).
