Thick Client Access
The CC-SG thick client allows you to connect to CC-SG by launching a Java Web Start
application instead of running an applet through a web browser. The advantage of using the thick
client instead of a browser is that the client can outperform the browser in terms of speed and
efficiency. The CC-SG thick client provides the same functions as the Java-based Director Client;
a GUI for both administrative and access tasks, depending on your permissions
Install the Thick Client
1. To download the thick client from CC-SG, launch a web browser and type this URL:
http(s)://<IP_address>/install where <IP_address> is the IP address of the CC-SG.
2. If a security warning message appears, click Start to continue the download.
3. (Optional) If your client computer is running Java version 1.4, a Desktop Integration
window appears. If you want Java to add a shortcut icon for the thick client to your desktop,
click
Yes .
4. When the download is complete, a new window in which you can specify the CC-SG IP
address appears.

5. Type the IP address of the CC-SG unit you want to access in the IP to Connect field.
Once you have connected, this address will be available from the IP to Connect drop-down list.
The IP addresses are stored in a properties file that is saved to your desktop.
6. If the CC-SG is configured for secure browser connections, you must check the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) checkbox. If the CC-SG is not configured for secure browser
connections, you must clear the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) checkbox. This setting must be
correct or the thick client will not be able to connect to CC-SG.
•
To check the setting in CC-SG: On the Administration menu, click Security . In the
General tab, look at the Browser Connection Protocol field. If the HTTPS/SSL option
is selected, then you must check the Secure Socket Layer SSL checkbox in the thick
client’s IP address specification window. If the HTTP option is selected, then you must
clear the
Secure Socket Layer SSL checkbox in the thick client’s IP address
specification window.
7. Click Start .
A warning message appears if you are using an unsupported Java Runtime Environment
version on your machine. Follow the prompts to either download a supported Java version, or
continue with the currently installed version.
