Fixed IP Address OpenManage Network Manager includes a web server and application server which must be installed to hosts with fixed IP addresses or permanently assigned Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) leases. If you do change your host's IP address To accommodate a changed IP address, first delete the contents of \oware\temp. Change your local IP address anywhere it appears in \owareapps\installprops\lib\installed.properties. Then restart your machine. Alternatively, in a shell, after running oware to set the environment, you can run ipaddresschange -n followed by the new IP address. NOTE: If you change your host's IP address, you must also change the Virtual host IP to the new IP address in Manage > Control Panel > Portal. If you do change your server's IP address, you must also change the URL for web client access in your browser. Authentication For successful discovery of the resources on your network, this software requires authenticated management access to the device. To get this access, you must provide the correct SNMP community strings, WMI login credentials, and any other command-line (Telnet / SSH) or browser (HTTP/HTTPS) authentication, and SNMP must be turned on, if that is not the device's default. Some devices require pre-configuration to recognize this management software. Consult your network administrator or the device's manuals for instructions about how to enable those. See Authentication on page 147 for more. Supported PowerConnect Models Refer to release notes for a list of supported devices. You can also look at the HTML files in the SupportedDevices directory of your installation source for information about supported devices and operating systems. Windows Management Interface The Windows Management driver currently supports any Windows based operating system that supports the Windows Management Interface (WMI). Windows Management is always installed on the following operating systems (or later): • Microsoft Windows XP Professional (with a browser other than Internet Explorer) 24 Sizing for Standalone Installations | Getting Started with Dell OpenManage Network Manager
