INFORMATION

INDEX

This section covers conguration of the AdderLink Innity Manager Suite for

administrators. For details about the regular user interface, please see the Operation

section.

SUPPORTED BROWSERS

The A.I.M. admin interface requires an A-grade browser with Javascript enabled.

The list of appropriate browsers is as follows:

• Google Chrome v7 or greater

• Firefox v3.5 or greater

• Internet Explorer v8 or greater (IE6 is not supported)

• Safari v5 or greater

1 Ensure that the A.I.M. server is powered on (allow 3 minutes before accessing).

2 Using a computer located anywhere within the local network open a web browser

(see Supported browsers list opposite) and enter the default IP address for the A.I.M.

server: 169.254.1.3

The Login page will be displayed:

3 Enter your Username and Password and click the Login button.

The default username is admin and the default password is password.

You are strongly recommended to change the default admin password as one of your

rst actions: Go to Dashboard>Users. Click on the furthest right icon in the admin row

(congure users) and change the password for the admin user.

If you check the Remember Me box, a cookie will be stored on the computer,

allowing you to access the admin section without having to log in each time. The

cookie will survive for up to the AIM Admin Timeout period. If you do not check the

Remember Me box, you will remain logged in only for the duration of your browser

session.

IMPORTANT

The rst time you log in as an admin user to a new A.I.M. server, you will be presented

with the Settings page where you will need to change A.I.M.’s default IP address to one

that suits your existing network conguration.

You will NOT be able to perform any other actions or navigate to any other pages within

the A.I.M. admin interface until you have changed A.I.M.’s IP address.

To change the IP address, type in a new IP address in the relevant eld (you should also

change the gateway/netmask details for your network).

When you click Save, after a delay the web browser will automatically redirect itself to

the new IP address so that you can continue administering A.I.M.

Note: Ensure that your access computer can view the new IP address, otherwise A.I.M. will

appear to be ofine. Depending on your network conguration and that of the access computer,

you may need to change the access computer’s conguration to be able to see A.I.M.’s new

network address.

You will then be asked to login again and will have full access to all of A.I.M.’s pages.

Note: If an existing A.I.M. server must be replaced, follow the important advice given within

Appendix C (Swapping out an A.I.M. server).
