If the OpenLNS network database is not empty, all the L ON W ORKS channels and devices on the
SmartServer tree are merged into the database. The domain length and domain ID properties in
the OpenLNS network database are not changed.
To switch the SmartServer from standalone to LNS mode (LNS Auto or LNS Manual) and
synchronize the network in the SmartServer tree to an OpenLNS network database, follow these steps:
1. Verify that EES 2.2 and OpenLNS Server have been installed on your computer. See Chapter 1 of
the Echelon Enterprise Services 2.2 User’s Guide for how to perform these installations.
2. Add an OpenLNS Server to the LAN. See Adding an OpenLNS Server to the LAN in Chapter 3
for more information on how to do this.
3. Click Driver and then click the network icon in the SmartServer tree. The Setup - LON Network
Driver Web page opens.
4. In the Network Management Service property, select the LNS Auto option. In this mode, the
SmartServer independently initiates communication with the LNS Proxy Web service, and
automatically sends network configuration changes made in the SmartServer tree to the OpenLNS
network database.
Select this mode If a firewall is not blocking the SmartServer’s access to the port on the OpenLNS
Server computer selected for the LNS Proxy Web service (port 80 by default). If a firewall is
blocking access to the LNS Proxy Web service, select the LNS Manual option.
5. The OpenLNS Server dialog opens.
6. Click Next.
7. A dialog for logging in to the LNS Proxy Web service opens. Enter the User Name and
Password used by the SmartServer for logging in to the LNS Proxy Web service and then click
OK. You initially specified the user name and password in the Echelon Enterprise Services 2.2
installer. If you forgot the user name and password, you can right-click the Echelon Enterprise
Services 2.2 tray icon in the notification area of your computer, and then click Options on the
shortcut menu.
