3Click Advanced...

4In the Exploring - Start Menu window, select the Traffix Manager Client icon.

7Right-click on the Desktop and select Shortcut from the Properties menu.

Client Access Levels You can run multiple clients against a single server. No more than 10 Traffix Manager clients can connect to the same Traffix Manager server.

There are two access levels for running the client:

■The Traffix Administrator level allows the user to configure all aspects of the operation of Traffix Manager, such as data collection and report generation. To avoid security conflicts between multiple clients, there can be only one Traffix Administrator logged in at any one time.

■All other clients are read-only and as such can view all collected data and configurations, but not change collection configurations. When you first start the client, you have Traffix Administrator access, if no other clients are logged in as the Traffix Administrator.

You can change to Traffix Administrator access from the User

Authorization dialog box, providing no-one else is logged in as the Traffix

Administrator at that time.

If you are a read-only user and attempt a Traffix Administrator level function, such as configuring a new agent, you are prompted to change to the Traffix Administrator, providing there is no other Traffix Administrator logged in at that time. If there is a Traffix Administrator logged in, access to that function is refused.
