11. If you created a new OpenLNS network database in step 8, select the Use OpenLNS Network
Interface option if the OpenLNS Server is attached to the physical network and you want the
SmartServer to communicate with the devices on the network, and then select the network
interface to be used for communication between the OpenLNS Server and the network.
If you selected an existing database in step 8, Use OpenLNS Network Interface is selected and
the network interface is specified automatically.
12. If Use OpenLNS Network Interface is selected, the Network Management Mode property is
set to OnNet automatically. This means that network changes are propagated to the network
immediately. Click OffNet to store network changes in the selected OpenLNS network database
and propagate them to the network when you place the SmartServer OnNet.
13. Click Submit.
14. If you selected LNS Auto in the Network Management Service property, synchronization
automatically begins. If you selected LNS Manual in the Network Management Service
property, manually synchronize the SmartServer to the new OpenLNS network database following
the steps described in Manually Synchronizing the SmartServer to an OpenLNS network database
earlier in this chapter.
15. If you are managing the network with OpenLNS CT, create a new OpenLNS CT drawing from the
OpenLNS network database and then synchronize the OpenLNS CT drawing to the OpenLNS
network database. See the OpenLNS Commissioning Tool User’s Guide for more information on
how to do this.
16. Commission the SmartServer and the external devices on the network with OpenLNS CT,
OpenLNS tree, or another OpenLNS application. For more information on installing the
SmartServer, see Installing the SmartServer with OpenLNS CT in Chapter 12.
Note: The SmartServer and the external device shapes already include their devices’ Neuron IDs.
Therefore, if you are using OpenLNS CT, you only need to right-click a device shape and clicking
Commission in the shortcut menu to commission a device. You do not have to step through the
New Device Wizard.
17. You now add the external network variables and configuration properties in the OpenLNS tree to
the built-in applications on a SmartServer (your local SmartServer or a remote SmartServer that
you have added to the LAN). See Adding Data Points to SmartServer Applications in Chapter 4
for more information on adding external network variables and configuration properties to the
SmartServer’s built-in applications.
18. If IP-852 routing is activated on your SmartServer, you need to reboot your SmartServer in order
to use the SmartServer as an IP-852 router. You can reboot your SmartServer using the
SmartServer Web pages or the SmartServer console application.

To reboot your SmartServer using the SmartServer Web pages, right-click the local
SmartServer, point to Setup, and then click Reboot on the shortcut menu. The Setup –
Reboot dialog opens. Click Reboot to start the reboot.
