IP Address
In order for PAM to be configured over a network, you must know the IP (network) address of every component. The Message Server uses IP addresses to communicate with the Message Agent on the RAID PCs and the Monitoring Utility on the network PCs.
To find the IP network address:
1.Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
2.Type ipconfig/all and press Enter.
The Windows IP Configuration displays (below).
Figure 94. Use the Command Prompt to find your PC’s IP address.
In the example above, the IP address of this PC is 192.168.1.132.
Locate and record the IP addresses of all PCs and Servers on your network that will work with PAM. This document will help you recall individual PCs when it is time to specify their connections.
