The computer is still set to the IP address you configured earlier, which is standard for all Avid
NEXIS Engines you are configuring. You do not need to change the computer’s IP address

12. Repeat this procedure until you have configured all the Engines that will be in the Avid NEXIS
system.

Make sure all the Engines that will belong to the same Avid NEXIS system have the same
Storage System Name.
13. When you have configured all the Engines, disconnect the computer from the Engine. You can
optionally restore the computer’s IP address to what it was originally. (Repeat the steps in
“Configuring the Computer’s IP Address” on page 41
, but at step 2d, instead of manually
entering an IP address for the computer, click Obtain an IP address automatically.)
If you want to run the wizard again, open the Agent and click Wizard on the CONFIGURE tab. You
can re-run the Wizard either to confirm your entries, or to make changes before you create the file
system and bind Media Packs.

system, see the
