Detailed Steps - Extreme Networks IP Service Manager User Manual

Starting IP Service Manager

Detailed Steps

1 Launch the IPSM Client
Launch the IPSM client as you would launch other applications on your host. For
example, Windows users can select Network Infrastructure Manager from the
Start>Programs>Extreme Networks>ISM Provision>Applications menu. Solaris users
can launch the ipsm executable file from the /opt/extreme/ismprov/bin directory by
using a graphical file manager application to double-click on its icon, or by typing:
/opt/extreme/ismprov/bin/ipsm
Once the application starts, you will see the login screen similar to the one shown in
Figure 2-1.

2 Specify the ISM Provision Server
Once the login screen appears, you will specify the ISM Provision server. Specify the IP
address of the server or the hostname by typing it into the server field. Figure 2-2 shows
the login screen and server field in more detail.
IPSM will store the IP addresses and names that you have specified in previous
sessions, so you may find your server already specified, or you may be able to select it
from the drop-down list in the server field. Click on the down-arrow on the right side
of the field and select the server.
