Configuration of the
LANCAPI
client
The configuration of the
LANCAPI
client is used to determine which
LANCAPI
servers will be used and how these will be checked. All parameters can
remain at their default settings if you are using only one
LANCOM
in your
LAN as a
LANCAPI
server.
a
Start the
LANCAPI
client in the 'LANCOM' program group. Information
regarding the drivers and the available service can be found on the 'Gen-
eral' tab.
b
In the
LANCAPI
client, change to the
Network
tab. First, select whether
the PC should find its own
LANCAPI
server, or specify the use of a partic-
ular server.
•
For the former, determine the interval at which the client should
search for a server. It will continue searching until it has found the
number of servers specified in the next field. Once the required num-
ber of servers has been found, it will stop searching.
•
In the event that the client should not automatically search for serv-
ers, list the IP addresses of the servers to be used by the client. This
can be useful if you are operating several
LANCOM
in your LAN as
LANCAPI
servers and you would like to specify a server for a group of
PCs, for example.
•
It is also possible to set the interval at which the client checks
whether the found or listed servers are still active.
Quick access to the
LANCAPI
client
There are two ways to launch the
LANCAPI
client directly from the Windows taskbar: Dou-
ble-clicking the icon will open the status window, from which you can reach the configura-
tion via
Properties
.
A right-click will take you to the client even faster. Select
Properties
from the context menu.
