5 Using HQi
5.1 HQi Introduction
HQi is an IP Dispatch application that connects to a FlexGate server. The HQi operator has the ability to create or
absolve communication patches, remotely disable select interfaces, or communicate directly with interfaces or patches.
It does this by authenticating with a FlexGate server via username and password credentials that have been pre-
configured through the FlexGate web interface. Once logged in, the operator has the ability to control a variety of
functions through the UI.
For assistance in configuring an HQi client, please refer to section 2.7 The HQi Client Interface (page 12).
5.2 The User Interface
When the HQi Client is launched, you will be prompted to enter the IP address of the FlexGate server, as well as the
username and password that was configured on the configuration website. Once logged in, you will see a screen similar
to the one in Figure 5-1.
Each individual HQi client’s screen will vary based on the configuration provided on the website.
