Example 2 — Two Application Servers, Same Subnet

5. If this PC has access to Subnet A (e.g. via VPN), it can access Alpha’s iControl Startup page

from a Web browser, and download iC Navigator (or any client applet). The application
knows about the Lookup Service on Alpha, and so the client PC will be able to see all devices
and services registered on Alpha.

Example 2 — Two Application Servers, Same Subnet

As an iControl configuration grows, additional Application Servers can be added to handle the
increased workload. Any TCP/IP devices associated with either Application Server should be
on the same subnet.

Figure 2-5

1. For the purpose of this example, Alpha is the only Application Server running the Lookup

Service. Under actual conditions, you should have two Application Servers (per subnet)
running the lookup service to provide redundancy.

2. The GSM is active on Alpha.
