/config/network folder on the SmartServer flash disk) to the OpenLNS network database. If
icons in the network tree are highlighted yellow, it means that the SmartServer’s internal
database is not yet synchronized with the selected OpenLNS network database.

k. When synchronization is done, the icons in the network tree should no longer highlighted

yellow. If any icons are highlighted yellow or you selected LNS Manual in step d, manually
synchronize the SmartServer to the OpenLNS network database. To do this, click the
Synchronize button in the OpenLNS Network property.

4. Configure the SmartServer’s built-in applications, FPM applications, and custom SmartServer

Web pages.

5. If you are using OpenLNS network management service, decommission the SmartServer.

6. Physically install the SmartServer in the field.

7. If you are using OpenLNS network management service, recommission the SmartServer using

OpenLNS CT, OpenLNS tree, or another OpenLNS application.

8. If you are using OpenLNS network management service, manually resynchronize the SmartServer

to the OpenLNS network database. To do this, right-click the network icon in the SmartServer
tree, and then click Synchronize with LNS in the shortcut menu. In the SmartServer Resync
dialog, click Start.

Manually Deploying Pre-Configured SmartServers in Multiple
Networks

You can pre-configure the SmartServer’s built-in applications on a single source SmartServer and
manually copy the SmartServer’s internal App device to multiple target SmartServers. A common
use-case scenario is the configuration of multiple SmartServers at one site. For example, on one
source SmartServer, you can configure one or more schedulers, data loggers, type translators, or other
applications on the SmartServer’s internal App device, back up the SmartServer’s internal App device
on your computer, copy the SmartServer App device backup to other target SmartServers that have
been set to the factory default settings, and then reboot the target SmartServers. The built-in
applications on the on the target SmartServers will have the same configuration (data points, presets,
and so on) as those on the source SmartServer. If you are using OpenLNS network management
service, you can then commission the target SmartServers and synchronize them to their respective
OpenLNS network databases.

To deploy pre-configured SmartServers in different networks, follow these steps:

1. Configure the built-in applications on a single source SmartServer.

2. Copy the /config/network/<Network>/<Channel>/ App Device> folder on the

source SmartServer flash disk to the local drive of your computer, a USB drive, another removable
media, or a shared network drive with read/write permissions.

3. Restore the target SmartServer to its factory default settings with the Setup – Cleanup Web page

or the console application.

To restore your SmartServer to its factory default settings using the SmartServer Web pages,
right-click the local SmartServer, point to Setup, and then click Clean Up on the shortcut
menu. The Setup – Cleanup dialog opens. Click Cleanup to reset the SmartServer.

To restore your SmartServer to its factory default settings using the console application, enter
the factorydefaults command, or enter the factorydefaults keepipaddrs command to reset
the SmartServer but keep its basic IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses. For more information on
using the SmartServer console application, see Appendix B.

4. Copy the config/network/<Network>/<Channel>/< SmartServer App Device> folder to the

/config/network/<Network>/<Channel> folder on the flash disk of the target SmartServer.
