Configuring the NSM Software
After logging in as an “admin” user, an initial setup script walks you through additional
configuration system settings before finalizing the NSM installation. This chapter describes
that setup process.
Your NSMXpress Series II comes preconfigured as a regional server or a central manager.
Most installation and configuration steps in this section are identical for both types of
server. All exceptions are noted.
After logging into the NSMXpress Series II Web interface, you have the following
installation options:
•
Configuring Basic Settings on page 29
• Configuring High Availability on page 32
• Advanced Options on page 34
•
Installing NSM Software on page 37

2.
Enter the https://<ip>/administration URL for your appliance in a Web browser. See
