Changing Hosts File Entries
Complete the following steps to map computer names to respective
unique IP addresses on both Servers.
1. Use Notepad to view the Hosts file in the directory location:
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC.
2. You must enter the desired computer names and respective
unique IP addresses on a separate line for each Server as shown
in the display above.
These names and addresses must be included in the Hosts file
and resident on each Server and Client.
ATTENTION
!
To support redundant Servers (Primary/Secondary),
you must identify all computer names and respective
unique IP addresses in the Hosts file and be sure
they are resident on each ProcessLogix Client.
Use the DOS command >IPCONFIG/ALL<, or access
TCP/IP Properties through the General tab in the
Local Area Connection Properties dialog box to
obtain IP addresses for all configured components.
