Can NoMachine autodetect servers on the LAN?

[rvmeush]

If my host gets a new IP address is it possible for NoMachine Player to autodetect servers that are available online so that I don’t have to set the addresses manually?

Yes, provided that each server is enabled to broadcast its IP details to other computers on the same network i.e it must have the “Advertize this computer on the network” box enabled.

Please see the dedicated tutorial here for more information about this:

An additional tidbit, just so you know 🙂 Each Player can also be configured to NOT show other computers on the LAN if you want. Check out chapter 2.4 of the guide here: https://knowledgebase.nomachine.com/DT11R00177#2.4.
