Configuring the application to use dual network cards
Issues with Client-to-Server connectivity can be due to different reasons. Some examples are:
The computer running the Server has more than one network interface card (NIC) installed.
The computer running the Server is behind a firewall that performs network address
translation.
To make sure that Clients can connect to the Server, you may need to edit the IP configuration
setting in the Options dialog to manually specify the IP address that the Server should use to
communicate to its Clients.
NOTE
If your Operating System is IPv4-enabled or IPv6-enabled (dual mode), the server binds using IPv4
address by default.
NOTE
IPv6 only mode does not support server to client communication (the IPv6 address cannot be bound
to the server).
To configure the IP address to override the default RMI server host IP address, complete the
following steps.
NOTE
This configuration option replaces the -Djava.rmi.server.hostname value used in previous releases.
