Enabling and disabling servers
Consider the following information when deleting entries from the enrollment
list:
– If the host you delete has a current connection through the Sidewinder
G2, that connection will be preserved.
– If the host severs the connection and attempts a new connection, the
new connection request may or may not be approved.
– A new connection request will be permitted only if there is still room
available within the enrollment list.
The Admin Console allows you to view the status of each server and to enable
or disable each server from one central location. You can also configure some
of the servers in this window. To view the status of a server or to enable/disable
a server, select Services Configuration > Servers.
The Server window displays a list of the available servers in the left portion of
the window. A green circle appears in front of a server if the server is currently
enabled. A red circle with a slash indicates that the server is disabled. When
you select a server, the properties for that server appear in the right portion of
the window.
You can enable or disable some servers for the entire Sidewinder G2, while
other servers can be enabled or disabled for individual burbs on the
Sidewinder G2. The fields and buttons that appear in the right portion of the
window will change depending on the type of server that is selected. If the
selected server can be enabled for individual burbs, the Enabled For field will
also appear. To enable or disable a server, select the Control check box for
that server for each burb. (A check mark appears for each burb in which the
server is enabled.)
