Installing Element Manager in a Citrix environment
You can run Element Manager in a Citrix environment, using the following software:
• Windows 2000 Server SP4 (fully patched)
• Citrix Metaframe XP Feature Release 3
• Citrix Program Neighborhood Version 7.0
When you run Element Manager in a Citrix environment, the Element Manager is installed on a
Citrix server. Users then run Citrix Program Neighborhood to connect to the server and launch the
Element Manager.
Element Manager is designed for single-user environments. A single installation of Element
Manager will extend the same user preferences to any Citrix user, including the device list and any
saved passwords. Citrix administrators can ensure a secure environment by using one of the
following approaches:
• install a copy of Element Manager for each user or group of users in different folders, with
Windows permissions set for the folder to control access
• in cases where a shared device tree is permitted, ensure that users do not save passwords, but
instead enter a password each time they connect
To install Element Manager on a Citrix server:
1 From the Citrix server, connect to the BCM50 web page:
— If the BCM50 is installed on the network use a browser and type in the BCM50 IP address
as the URL in the following format:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
— If the BCM50 is installed but not yet configured, connect directly to the BCM50 through
the OAM port and, using a browser, type the following:
http://10.10.11.1/
2 Enter the user name and password to be authenticated on the BCM50 web page. See Chapter
4, “BCM50 Security Policies and Accounts and Privileges,” on page 75 for information on
default user and passwords.
