Initial Configuration

This section contains a brief overview of the steps taken to configure SyncServer to operate on your network.

Note: These options are not enabled unless you are logged in as the 'admin' user. For 'stats' users, these options are disabled.

Browse to SyncServer

The SyncServer configuration parameters are controlled with a browser. For your machine to be able to browse to the SyncServer, ensure that:

1. Your machine is physically connected to the same network as the SyncServer
2. Your machine has an IP address alias for the same network as the default IP of the SyncServer, which is 192.168.254.254.

Change admin Password

1. Point your browser to IP address http://192.168.254.254
2. Log in as user name "admin" and password "admin".
3. Select System Configuration from the left-hand navigation.
4. Scroll down the page to the "Web Administrators Authentication" section.
5. Type in a new password and confirm that password
6. Select Apply at the bottom of the "Web Administrators Authentication" section.

Change IP Address of SyncServer

1. Scroll up to the "Networking" section.
2. Change the IP Address to a local address on your LAN.
