Connecting to SMART Sync Class List
Server
If you or your system administrator has installed SMART Sync Class List Server as
documented in the SMART Sync 2010 System Administrator’s Guide
( document 144150 ), you can connect SMART Sync Teacher to it to do one of the
following:
l
Maintain information about your school’s students, teachers, classes and
computer labs, as well as rules you can apply to block student access to
applications and websites, in a central location that’s accessible to multiple
teachers in your school.
l
Allow students to connect to you by selecting your ID from a drop-down list in
SMART Sync Student when you’re logged on to SMART Sync Teacher. (This
feature is referred to as “teacher discovery.”)
N O T E S
l
If you use SMART Sync Class List Server for the first option, you or your
system administrator must install SMART Sync Administrator Tool and
create a SMART School file. If you use SMART Sync Class List Server for
the second option, you don’t need to complete those additional steps.
l
If multicasting is enabled on your school’s network, teacher discovery is
available by default. You don’t need to use SMART Sync Class List Server
to allow teacher discovery in this situation.
