Once the connection is established, the Smart Home Server detects the
presence of the new PC and passes this information to the Command
Center. By opening specific Command Center pages, you can monitor
the PC’s security programs and backups, and open ports when required.
Note:
If you connect a PC that does not have the Command Center
installed, the Smart Home Server treats it the same way it treats a
non-PC device. See Chapter 4 for details.

Log into the Command Center from the PC. There should be an entry
for the PC in the Network Map on the Home page. The entry appears as
a desktop computer icon. Next to the icon are the PC’s name, the
Windows user name and a status message. The following shows what a
typical entry looks like:
In the example above,
FamilyRoom
is the name of the PC,
MICHAEL
is the Windows user name, and the status message is
Warning
,
indicating a problem with the security programs on the PC. The green
star indicates the Command Center is connected to the Smart Home
Server. If it were not connected, the star would be red.
Note:
To find out the name of a computer, click
Start
on the Windows
taskbar, right-click
My Computer
and select
Properties
. The
Computer Name
tab shows the computer name and allows you
to change it.
If you pass the mouse cursor over the icon, the IP and MAC addresses of
the PC pop up.
