Configure the Network Connection
When you install Orchestrator, the IP address for your server is set as not set. To change this, you must configure
the network settings used by Orchestrator.
Prerequisites
System administrators must make sure that the network provides a fixed IP, which is obtained by using a
properly configured DHCP server (using reservations) or by setting a static IP. The Orchestrator server requires
that this IP address remain constant while it is running.
Procedure
1 Log in to the Orchestrator configuration interface as vmware.
2 Click Network.
3 From the IP address drop-down menu, select the network interface to which to bind the Orchestrator
server.
Orchestrator discovers the IP address of the machine on which the server is installed.
When an interface is selected, the corresponding DNS name appears. If no network name is found, the IP
address appears in the DNS name text box. Use this IP address to log in to the Orchestrator client interface.
4 Set up the communication ports.
For more information about default ports, see “Default Configuration Ports,” on page 28.
5 Click Apply changes.
