If you are installing Management and Security Server for the first time on this machine, the automated installer starts the Initial Configuration Utility. For a description, see Initial Configuration Utility.

NOTE:Do not close the installer when the configuration utility is launched. You must complete additional steps in the installer after completing configuration.

Enter or verify your configuration information. Refer to Ports used by Management and Security Server as needed.

  1. Installation Directory: Confirm or browse to the location where the Administrative Server was installed.

  2. MSS Server Services: Select the services you want to enable. You must have an MSS Server service running on one machine at your site. If entitled, you can optionally choose to install the Security Proxy server.

  4. Servlet runner ports: Accept the default entries or enter the port numbers that the servlet runner will use for HTTP and HTTPS connections.

    The default port number for HTTP is 80, and the default for HTTPS is 443.

  6. Administration password: Enter a password. Use this password to open the Administrative Console and to administer Metering and Terminal ID management (if installed). You can create different passwords for each server later.

    Note: To change the administrative password later, use the Administrative Console (Configure Settings - General Security).

    Enter a DNS name or IP address. The current DNS name is provided, when available. To change the servlet runner certificate later, use the HTTPS Certificate Utility.
