Launching the
Traffix Manager
Server

There are two steps to launching Traffix Manager: you must launch the
Traffix Manager server first and then launch the Traffix Manager client.

To launch the Traffix Manager server:

1 Select Programs from the Start menu, and open the directory in which

you installed the Traffix Control Panel. The default path is:
Start>Programs>Transcend Traffix Manager>Transcend Traffix Manager
v3.0 Control Panel
.

2 Click Database Setup to launch the Database Setup dialog box.

3 Click Create New Database to create an empty Traffix Manager 3.0

database.

4 You can change the database size from the Database Maintenance dialog

box. Click Database Maintenance in the Traffix Control Panel to open the
Database Maintenance dialog box.

5 Start the Traffix Manager server by clicking Start Server in the Traffix

Control Panel.

Launching the
Traffix Manager
Client

To launch the Traffix Manager client, select Programs from the Start
menu, and open the directory in which you installed the client. The
default path is Start>Programs>Transcend Traffix Manager>Transcend
Traffix Manager v3.0 Client
.

The first time that you start the Traffix Manager client after installation,
you will be automatically logged in as the Traffix Manager Administrator
to give you the rights to configure Traffix Manager. See

“Client Access

Levels”

on

page 50

for more information on administrator and read-only

user access.

When the client is first started, it tries to locate the Traffix Manager server
through the use of a broadcast message. If the system on which the client
is running is not in the same broadcast domain as the server, this
broadcast message will fail, and the client will not be able to connect to
the server. In order to solve this problem, you may tell the client explicitly
where the server is. See “Running the Client in a Different Broadcast
Domain to the Server” on page 24 of the Traffix Manager Release Notes
for more information.

After you have started the Traffix Manager client for the first time, the
startup wizard appears automatically. This will guide you through the
