LMS 4.0 initial configuration issues

Question

Hi Experts ,
I am installing LMS 4.0 in my site newly  . I have nearly 1000 devices in network .When i had tried the autodiscovery mode using ping sweep method  the devices are getting discovered but showing us unreacheable . All the devices are going under unreacheable no devices are getting added to the DCR .
SNMP settings are configured correctly .
Please let me know whether the autodiscovery will add the devices to DCR or i need to add the devices manually .
As per my requierement i need to configure below things , is it possible to configure the same
1)LMS as SYSLOG server
