Getting Started with iControl

Configuring Client Workstations

52

To restart the Application Server

1. On the iControl—admin page, click Reboot and shutdown, under Other.

The iControl—Reboot and shutdown page appears.

2. Click Reboot.

The Application Server restarts with the network parameters you have established.

3. Disconnect the client PC that was used to configure the Application Server. Remember to

restore the previous network settings on the PC (see

"Preparing a PC for Configuring the

Application Server"

, on page 46).

4. Connect the Application Server to its designated network. Use a standard Ethernet cable

plugged into the Application Server’s Eth0 port (see

"Installing the iControl Application

Server"

, on page 44).

Task 4: Configuring Client Workstations

Any Windows 8 or Windows 7 workstation with access to an Application Server can be used to
operate iControl, without the need for special client-side software. There is, however, one
consideration in preparing them to work with iControl: the workstation’s local DNS settings.

REQUIREMENTS

Make sure you meet the following conditions before beginning this procedure:

• You have configured your network interface settings (see

page 50

).

• You have opened the iControl—admin page (see

page 555

).

IMPORTANT: You may lose communication to the Application Server

If your PC is on a different subnet than the Application Server’s new address,
you will lose communication with the Application Server once you reboot.

IMPORTANT: Ethernet Port Labels on the R200, R210, R310, and R320 Application

Servers

Please read the section regarding Ethernet port labels (see

page 49

).
