To launch the Ridgeline Client, you need to have the following information:
● The name or IP address of the Ridgeline Server to which the Client should connect
● The HTTP port that the Client uses to communicate with the server (the default is 8080). This is the
HTTP port you entered when you installed the Ridgeline Server.
To launch the Ridgeline Client, do the following:
1 Launch your web browser.
2 Enter the URL for your Ridgeline Server, in the form:
http://<host>:<port>/
Replace <host> with the name or IP address of the system where the Ridgeline Server is running.
Do not use
localhost as the host.
Replace
<port> with the TCP port number that you assigned to the Ridgeline web server during
installation.
NOTE
If you configured your Ridgeline Server to use the default web server port 80, you do not need to
include the port number. However, the port used by Ridgeline is 8080 by default, so in most cases you do need
to include the port.
