Client/Server IP
You can configure connections between the client or switches and the Management application
server.
Configuring the server IP address
If your Operating System is IPv4-enabled or IPv6-enabled (running in dual mode), the server binds
using an IPv4 address. IPv6 only mode does not support server to client communication (the IPv6
address cannot be bound to the server).
NOTE
If the Management server or client has multiple Network Interface Cards and if any of these
interfaces are not plugged in, you must disable them; otherwise, the following features do not work
properly:
