Configuring the Communication Protocol To Use With BACS4
There are two main components of the BACS4 management application: the provider component and the client
software. A provider is installed on a server, or “managed host”, that contains one or more NICs. The provider
collects information on the NICs and makes it available for retrieval from a management PC on which the client
software is installed. The client software enables viewing information from the providers and configuring the
NICs.The BACS client software includes a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command line interface (CLI).
A communication protocol enables communication between the provider and the client software. Depending on
the mix of operating systems (Linux, Windows, or both) on the clients and managed hosts in your network, you
can choose an appropriate communication protocol to use. See
Linux Management Application Installation
a description of the available communication protocols for each network configuration.
The instructions in this chapter address only the scenario where Windows managed hosts are
communicating with Windows clients.
In these scenarios, you can use either the WMI or the WS-MAN
(WinRM) communication protocols. When you use the driver installer described in this chapter to install both the
driver and the management applications, the provider for both WMI and WS-MAN is installed on the managed
host. Additionally, the BACS4 utility is installed on the client. The following sections provide additional
configuration steps for the communication protocol you select.
For Linux installations, the driver is installed separately from the management applications. See
Software and Management Application Installation
for related instructions.
Using WS-MAN
To use the WS-MAN communication protocol, follow the instructions in the following sections:
•
WS-MAN Windows Server Configuration
•
WS-MAN Windows Client Installation
