The LAN, the host devices on the LAN, and the networks available on the host devices are further
described as follows:
LAN The LAN icon corresponds to the SmartServer’s 10/100-BaseT Ethernet
connection. This connection is always the first icon shown in the
navigation pane, and it cannot be deleted
Host Devices Host devices represent the various servers on the LAN. Host devices
include your local SmartServer and may include remote SmartServers,
OpenLNS Servers, e-mail (SMTP) servers, time servers (SNTP), IP-852
Configuration Servers, and Web Connection Target servers.
Local SmartServer Your local SmartServer is always the second icon shown in the navigation
pane, and it cannot be deleted. From this icon, you can configure your
local SmartServer; access the SmartServer’s built-in applications; and
manage, monitor, and control the devices connected to your local
SmartServer. The remote access (dial-up) connections and the network
attached to your local SmartServer are listed one level below the local
SmartServer icon.
Remote
SmartServers You can add remote SmartServers to the LAN and manage them from
your local SmartServer. You can also create Web connections between
the data points on your local SmartServer to the data points on the remote
SmartServers (called peer-to-peer connections).
Remote SmartServers are represented by SmartServer icons that include
the IP addresses or hostnames of their respective remote SmartServers.
