Pre-migration requirements • Make sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is correctly defined in the shell with a valid value (for example, to display to the local console, export DISPLAY=:0.0, or to display to a remote system that has an X Server running, export DISPLAY=Remote_IP_Address:0.0). You may also need to consider a firewall that might block the display to the X Server which listens by default on TCP port 6000 on the remote host. To display to a remote system you need to permit the remote display of the X Server by running command xhost +IP, where IP is the IP address of the Network Advisor server host from the X-based desktop of the remote system. • Make sure you test the DISPLAY definition by running the command xterm from the same shell from which you run install.bin. A new X terminal window to the destination X Server display should open.

Click Start, if necessary.
