Introduction to BlipManager
The BlipNet system can be administered from the BlipNet management tool called
BlipManager. The BlipManager can be used to:
 Administrate:
o User Accounts
o Allowed BlipNodes
o Allowed Terminals
o Security (Bluetooth Passkeys)
o Software Updates
 Configure:
o BlipNode Accessibility
o Services in the BlipNodes
o BlipNet Mobility
o Wireless BlipNodes
 Monitor:
o Status of the system
o Connected terminals
o Active sessions
o BlipNode SW versions
The BlipManager is implemented as a thin client. It does not have any local storage. All
configuration changes are made directly to the BlipServer. The BlipManager is supported on
both Windows platform and Linux platforms. It is not necessary to run the BlipManager and the
BlipServer on the same machine.
