Chapter 4: Launching the Ridgeline 3.1 Client
Ridgeline Installation and Upgrade Guide
54
●
Solaris 10
NOTE
This release, Ridgeline 3.1 will be the last release that supports Solaris.
A Ridgeline client requires a monitor that supports 1024 x 768 resolution, and at least 16-bit color. Your
system display settings must be set for at least 65536 colors.
See
“System Requirements” on page 7
for memory, CPU, disk and other requirements.
NOTE
There is no separate installation for the client. When you launch the client, any software updates are
downloaded from the server and installed automatically.
To launch the client, you need to have the following information:
●
The name or IP address of the Ridgeline server to which the client should connect
●
The HTTP port that the client uses to communicate with the server (the default is 8080). This is the
HTTP port you entered when you installed the Ridgeline server.
To launch the Ridgeline client, complete the following steps:
1
Launch your web browser.
2
Enter the URL for your Ridgeline server, in the form:
http://<
host
>:<
port
>/
Replace
<
host
>
with the name or IP address of the system where the Ridgeline server is running.
Replace
<
port
>
with the TCP port number that you assigned to the Ridgeline web server during
installation.
NOTE
If you configured your Ridgeline server to use the default web server port 80, you do not need to
include the port number. However, the port used by Ridgeline is 8080 by default, so in most cases you do need
to include the port.
