SLP on Windows
This section describes how to install, start, and verify the SLP daemon on Windows.
On Windows, the SLP service must be installed from a command prompt. It need only be installed
once, but must be installed before starting the SMI-A.
Installing SLP on Windows
1. Open a command prompt via Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
2. Change to the directory where slpd.bat is located:
cd C:\<SMIAgent>\agent\bin
3. Run slpd -install to install the SLP service into Windows. If SLP is already installed, the
following message displays:
CreateService failed - The specified service already exists. (0x431)
Starting SLP on Windows
1. Install the SLP service, as described in “Installing SLP on Windows” .
2. Open a command prompt via Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
3. Change to the directory where slpd.bat is located:
cd C:\<SMIAgent>\agent\bin
4. Run slpd -start to start the SLP service.
You can also start the SLP service from the Windows Service Console. If the SLP is installed as
a Windows service, you should access the Services Console and ensure that the startup is set
to Automatic.
An SLP log file can be found at:
<SMIAgent>\agent\cfg\slp.log
The SLP daemon can be reconfigured by modifying the following file:
<SMIAgent>\agent\cfg\slp.conf
Applications that do not dynamically register themselves with SLP using SLPAPIs can instead be
statically registered by modifying the following file:
<SMIAgent>\agent\cfg\slp.reg
