Getting started

 

The Configuration Manager program is used to set and adjust the VRM system. The program

 

can be installed on any PC with network access to the computer on which VRM Server has

 

been started and to the devices that are to be managed.

Start Internet Explorer on a PC that has network access to the VRM Server computer.

 

2.

In the address bar, enter the IP address of the VRM Server computer and press <ENTER>.

 

 

If you are starting VRM Monitor on the VRM Server computer, enter the IP address for the

 

 

localhost followed by the port number if the port number is not 80: http://127.0.0.1:<port

 

 

number>/

 

3.

Access to VRM Monitor is only possible for authorized persons. For this reason you will

 

 

now be prompted to log on using your user ID. If you do not have the appropriate rights,

ration Manager programs, this can result in an inconsistent VRM configuration. Ensure that

 

different people do not make changes to the configuration at the same time.
