Vantage CNM 2.0
Step 4. Restart Vantage CNM; you don't have to restart the computer on which Vantage CNM is installed.
Right-click the Vantage icon in the system tray and select STOP.
Right-click the icon again and select START.
Step 5. When you register new devices with Vantage, make sure the new device can ping the Vantage server
(the new Vantage CNM Public IP address) and then set the device's Manager IP address correspondingly.
18.3.1 Servers
You can configure these servers as you install Vantage (in the installation wizard) or after you install it in this
screen.
Configure the Vantage CNM public IP server address, FTP server (for firmware upload), syslog server (for logs)
and mail server (for Vantage notifications and reports) in this screen. These IP addresses will be the same as the
Vantage server computer if they are all on the same computer.
The FTP server is used for file transfers, such as firmware upgrade.
The SMTP server is used for e-mail notifications.
The syslog server is used to receive logs. The syslog server you configure for a device and the syslog server you
configure for Vantage MUST be the same.
You should know each server's IP address, username and password. File transfers (FTP), e-mail notifications
(SMTP) or log reports (syslog) will not work in Vantage if these are incorrectly configured.
See the User's Guide appendices for examples of setting up syslog and FTP servers. The syslog server must be
either a Linux syslog server or Kiwi for Windows
SSH, so you must enable the SSH daemon on the Linux syslog server. Vantage communicates with a Windows
(Kiwi) syslog server using Telnet, so you must enable Telnet on the Windows (Kiwi) syslog server. See the
Quick Start Guide for information on configuring the Linux syslog server to send logs to Vantage.

Only these syslog servers are supported at the time of writing.
