MBOX ® DIRECTOR USER MANUAL 5
Network Configuration
When first setting up MBOX Director, it is important to configure the network settings properly so the application will
detect the MBOX server (or servers). This is especially critical when running MBOX Director on a separate Mac
computer, since the network setup will be more involved than when running it locally on an MBOX server.
MBOX CITP Setting
The network CITP setting should always be configured at the Mbox Setup tab. This setting is located in the Network
section of the Setup tab as shown below:
MBOX Daemon
MBOX network communication involves a software
application called MBOX Daemon. This software is required
on all MBOX servers to enable remote feedback. When the
MBOX application is launched (on the MBOX server), it will
automatically launch the last version of MBOX Daemon
used on that computer.
To view the Daemon interface, choose it in the dock or
press [
 D] while the MBOX application is in Window mode.
The MBOX Daemon screen will always reflect the Network
Interface setting as configured in the Setup tab (see above).
The Network Interface setting can be changed at the MBOX
Daemon screen, however, this is not recommended since
the setting WILL NOT be retained if the MBOX is restarted.
A sample MBOX Daemon screen is shown to the right.
