3.1 Administration Console - the main window
29
•
The left column contains the tree view of sections. The individual sections of the
tree can be expanded and collapsed for easier navigation. Administration Console
remembers the current tree settings and uses them upon the next login.
• In the right part of the window, the contents of the section selected in the left column
is displayed (or a list of sections in the selected group).
Administration Window — Main menu
The main menu provides the following options:
File
• Reconnect — reconnection to the WinRoute Firewall Engine after a connection
drop-out (caused for example by a restart of the Engine or by a network error).
•
New connection — opens the main window of the Administration Console . Use
a bookmark or the login dialog to connect to a server.
This option can be useful when the console will be used for administration of
multiple server applications (e.g. WinRoute at multiple servers). For details, refer
to the Help section in the Administration Console manual.
Note: The New Connection option opens the same dialog as running the Adminis-
tration Console
from the
Start
menu.
• Quit — this option terminates the session (users are logged out of the server and
the administration window is closed). The same effect can be obtained by clicking
the little cross in the upper right corner of the window or pressing Alt+F4 or
Ctrl+Q .
The Edit menu (on the welcome page only)
Options under Edit are related to product registration and licensing. The options available
in the menu depend on the registration status (for example, if the product is registered
as a trial version, it is possible to use options of registration of a purchased license or
a change of registration data).
• Copy license number to clipboard — copies the license number (the ID licence
item) to the clipboard. This may be helpful e.g. when ordering an upgrade or
subscription, where the number of the base license is required, or when sending
an issue to the Kerio Technologies technical support.
• Register trial version — registration of the product’s trial version.
• Register product — registration of a product with a purchased license number.
• Install license — use this option to import your license key file (for details, see
chapter 4.4 ).
Help menu
•
Show Server’s Identity — this option provides information about the firewall
which the Administration Console is currently connected to (name or IP address
of the server, port and SSL-certificate fingerprint). This information can be used
