# Control Center

The Belkin Network USB Hub Control Center enables you to manage all aspects of one or more Hubs from one convenient central location.
Tasks on the left enable you to configure settings for all Hubs on your network and to check for updates of the Control Center software. For more information about these settings, see Network USB Hub Settings.
You can also select devices on the right and specify connection settings for them. For more information, see device connection settings.
The device status pane on the right shows the status of all USB devices connected to the Hub, and reference information about each device. To connect to a USB device, select it and click Connect.
If another Network USB Hub user is using a device with which you need to connect, you can select the device in the status pane and click Request use. A message will appear on the user's computer notifying them that you wish to use this device. They can click Disconnect on the message if they want to make the device available to you. You can monitor the device in the status pane after you request use, to determine if the other user disconnected or not.
