Managing a Global Server
Network (GSN)
About the Global Server Network (GSN)
A SMART Bridgit GSN is a network of SMARTBridgit servers in different geographical locations. A
GSN optimizes bandwidth and reduces latency for enterprise SMARTBridgit deployment.
You don't have to install the GSN separately. Install the SMARTBridgit server software and use
SMARTBridgit Administration Tools to configure the GSN options. See Installing the server software
on page 16 for installation information.
SMART Bridgit Servers in a GSN
You install each server in a GSN as an independent SMARTBridgit Server. Once included in a GSN,
each independent server becomes a node in the network with independent server capabilities.
Requirements and prerequisites
The requirements for a GSN Server are the same as a standard SMARTBridgit Server. See
Preparing for installation on page 6 for details.
Setting up a local GSN server
When you install SMARTBridgit server software, a shortcut to SMARTBridgit Administration Tools
appears on your desktop.

Tools on one server in a GSN automatically apply to all servers in that GSN.
l Your server name should describe your local server in plain language.
l The server password is used by other servers in the GSN to add your server. This password
is mandatory.
