The Directories Page

The Directories page displays a table of all the other instances of Directory Server that are running on the local network and that are using the default Directory Server port (86). For each instance, it shows:

The version number of Directory Server
The IP address of the machine on which it is running
The DNS-resolved hostname of the machine on which it is running. Next to the hostname is a right-pointing arrow, which you can click to open a new Enterprise Server Administration window on your machine, giving you access to the other Directory Server and its objects without having to remember its IP address.

Note:

You should take care to ensure that an appropriate level of security has been set up for all the instances of Directory Server on a local network, to reduce the possibility of unauthorised access using the Directories page. For more on security and the options available, see Introduction to Server Enterprise Edition Security.
