the

i.LON AdminServer

3. The Deploy Web page opens.

4. In the Target property, enter the name of the target. If you do not specify a name, the i.LON

AdminServer appends an index to the project name. For example, if the project is named
“myProject”, the default name of the Target is “myProject1”.

If the i.LON template includes an LNS network database, the Target LNS Database property
displays the name of the LNS network database that will be created when the i.LON template is
deployed. This name is the same as the one specified in the Target property.

Note: If the template includes an LNS network database, the name of the Target must not exceed
10 to 12 characters, and it may not contain the forward slash (/), back slash (\), period (.), and
colon (:) characters. The i.LON AdminServer will automatically truncate the Target LNS
Database
name if the name entered in the Target box is too long.

This limit is imposed because the full path of the LNS network database may be a maximum of 23
characters, and the new LNS network databases created by the deployment are stored in the
c:\ilon\db\ folder, which consumes 11 characters, which leaves 12 characters for the name of the
Target project. If you are deploying a template that includes an LNS network database on two to
nine SmartServers, a one-digit index number is appended to the name of the LNS network
database, which consumes 1 additional character. If you are deploying a template that includes an
LNS network database on 10 to 99 SmartServers, a two-digit index number is appended to the
name of the LNS network database, which consumes 2 additional characters.

5. In the Deployment Mode property, select Automatic or Semi-Automatic.

• Select Automatic if you are deploying an engineered network and each device has a unique

device interface (XIF) file. Selecting this option installs the devices in the network
