Running Recon Locally
Running Recon locally allows you to collect detailed location information for a specific computer, but it
requires your time at the workstation.
To acquire a computer by running Recon locally:
1. Copy Recon.exe to the local drive.
Note: Recon.exe is a self-contained application and does not require an installer.
2. Open Recon.exe.
If prompted, enter the DNS name or IP address for the JSS.
When Recon.exe opens, the computer name appears by default.
3. Enter the asset tag in the field provided and/or utilize a barcode scanner to enter a bar code.
4. (Optional) Click the Location tab and enter location information for the computer.
If an LDAP connection is set up in the JSS, click the Check Name button to populate information from the
LDAP server.
