Backup server

A backup server ensures that user data and devices are still available in the 
system if a main server breaks down or the connection fails. 

If the currently connected server itself is used as the master server, these fields 
remain blank:

If the currently connected server itself is used as the backup server, enter the IP 
addresses of the PCs for which you want it to act as backup server (

Master 1

 

and 

Master 2

).

For each connection, enter the password for the user 

backup

. The user 

backup

 

must be created on the master server and belongs to the 

servers

 group.

Note

Confirm each change and entry you make by clicking on 

Set

. The changes 

then take effect.
