Remote management console

Manage the ProLiant DL320 Security Server from a management station on the LAN by installing the ISA
Server 2004 management console on the management station. The ISA Server 2004 management
console can manage virtually any aspect of the server configuration.

The ProLiant DL320 Security Server management console can be installed by placing the Companion CD
into the CD-ROM drive of the management station, and then selecting the option to install the
management console from the autorun page. The management station will be able to connect to the
server because there is a system policy rule in place that allows internal network hosts to connect using
the server management console.
