. Note: When using this procedure, only the selected server’s firmware is upgraded. If you
know that new NPort Pro Manager software has been released, it is recommended
that you uninstall the old NPort Pro Manager program from your NT/95/98 host’s
hard drive, and then install the new one.
Configuring Server Properties
The Server Properties function can be used to change the server’s name, password, and
transmission parameters. Choose Server
Properties from the Server menu, or
click on the toolbar Server Properties
icon to start the function.
Server Properties—General
You may modify the Server Name,
Server IP, and Netmask by using the
toolbar Properties function.
1. Select the General tab in the
Server Properties window.
2. Modify the Server Name, Server
IP , and Netmask, as needed.
3. Select Enable or Disable, for DHCP, depending on whether or not you are using a
DHCP server.
Server Properties—Password
To add more security to your NPort Server Pro, it is highly recommended that you set a password as
soon as you complete the installation. If you did not set the password while running Add Server
Wizard, or you would like to change the current password, you may use the toolbar Properties
function to do so.
You may also use this function to “Auto-Save”, i.e., to have Windows NT/95/98 remember your
password for you. By auto saving the password, you will not be asked to enter the password when
modifying server properties from this computer.
. Note: Keep in mind that other people using your computer will also have ready access to
the NPort Pro Manager functions.
