Chapter 2 - VMS Installation 2-41
VMS Client Installation
Installation Procedure
The VNO installation process consists of installing software, highlighted in
yellow sections in figure 2-50, on the IIS Server and the Client PC. Although
the VNO_WS Server can run on the VMS server, it is recommended that it be
installed only on the client PC running Viperview.
1. If running, terminate the Viperview.exe and VConMgr.exe applications on
the server. Use the Task Manager to end the applications and processes.
2. Execute the VMS 3.6.x.xxx SOAP Proxy setup.exe application. This will
install VNO-WS.exe and VNO.ui.dll in the default Vipersat\VMS\3.0\bin
directory.
3. As shown in figure 2-51, the Installer will present a dialog requesting VNO
configuration parameters.
• VNO Host IP
This parameter is the IP address for the network interface that the VNO
web service will use for TCP/IP communications with VNO client
applications. A value of 0.0.0.0 will use all network interfaces on the
server. This is the recommended setting unless a specific network
interface is required.
• VNO Host Port
This parameter specifies the TCP port used by VNO-WS. The default port
is decimal 8080. Any available port can be specified provided that the
client applications send their request to this port.
• Basic User Authentication
This check box indicates whether the Basic User Authentication is enabled
or not. If enabled, each client request contains a user name and password
in the HTTP header. The VNO.admin.exe utility is used to configure the
user database and privilege levels. This utility is located in the VMS-
installed directory Vipersat\VMS\3.0\bin.
• VMS Server IP
This parameter specifies the IP address(es) of the VMS server(s). In a
standalone VMS configuration, enter the one VMS server IP addresses. In
a redundant VMS configuration, up to nine addresses can be entered (e.g.,
for all VMS servers in the same redundancy group).
