toptools User Guide (4) Power On will work with systems that support standard Magic Packet technology. (5) If a device supports a webagent technology and another technology, such as WMI, toptools will create a link to the management home page (webagent) and will also generate generic toptools property pages. Toptools automatically discovers webagents (or web servers) listening on port 80 (Device Home Page) or ports 280, 411, 2301, or 6500 (Management Home Page). The management URL for a specific device may be manually set using the Device Communication dialog. Installation Procedure This section will provide step-by-step instructions on installing a toptools server on a Windows NT or 2000 system. - Note - If you upgrade from a version of toptools earlier than 5.0, the installation wizard will offer to uninstall the earlier version for you. If you choose not to uninstall the earlier version, the installation process will halt. If you are uninstalling a version earlier than toptools 5.0 you will lose settings and device information in the toptools databases. This means that you must rediscover your network and reenter any configuration or supplementary information before using toptools. If you are upgrading from toptools 5.0, you can elect to save database information during the uninstall process. This information can be restored for use with toptools 5.5 Refer to the uninstallation and installation procedures for more information. If you do not save information during the uninstall process you will lose configuration and database information. Check the readme file and the toptools web site for the latest information. You can install the toptools server from the toptools CD ROM (run CD:\setup.exe) or from the toptools web site. The web site is located at http://www.hp.com/toptools. Go to the download page and follow the directions provided. The toptools installation wizard (setup.exe) is an extensive program designed to make the toptools installation process friendly and successful. It performs the following basic steps: 1. Checks your system for necessary hardware, operating system and web server components to determine which if any of these components need to be installed, and then reports on steps that must be completed by the user or the installation wizard. 2. Prompts the user for desired toptools components. 3. Installs prerequisite software and toptools applications while continually displaying status. The complete installation process including prerequisite software may take up to 45 minutes depending on the number of components to be installed and the number of reboots necessary. Toptools uses an 'auto logon' feature that automatically logs the user into the system and continues the installation process following a required reboot. Before running setup.exe, verify the following: The system meets the minimum hardware and networking requirements as specified in the previous section and the readme file. The Operating System is Windows NT 4.0 Workstation or Server, or Windows 2000 Professional, Server, or Advanced Server edition. You have a Windows NT Operating System installation CD if installing on a Windows NT system that does not already have the Microsoft SNMP service installed. You have a Windows 2000 Operating System installation CD if installing on a Windows 2000 system that does not already have the Microsoft SNMP service and/or Microsoft IIS already installed. The following steps show dialogs from a variety of systems. The dialogs you see and the exact procedure you will follow will vary depending on the operating system, existing software environment, and the components you select. For information on upgrading toptools or installing toptools on non-English versions of Windows, refer to the readme file. 17
