Connecting to a New iControl Application Server
Before you can begin operations, you must configure the Application Server and make it
available on your local network. The iControl Application Server is shipped with its Eth0 port
configured to a standard setting. As you perform the configuration procedures in this manual,
you will reconfigure the port to integrate the Application Server into your network.
To connect to a new Application Server
1. Using a crossover Ethernet cable, connect the client PC to the Eth0 port on the new
Application Server.

are usually shown on a sticker on the top cover of its chassis.
Note: Remember to return the PC to its original network settings once you have
finished configuring the iControl Application Server.
