Installing Command View TL
Note: If you are upgrading from a previous version of Command View TL (Command
View ESL prior to version 1.5), follow the procedure below to install the new version
over the old version. All previous settings (device list, support tickets, proxy settings and
so forth) are migrated during the upgrade.
1. Insert the Command View TL software CD into the CD-ROM drive of the
designated management station.
2. If autorun is disabled on the CD-ROM drive, locate and double-click
setup.exe on the CD.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.
Command View TL is essentially a web server that hosts a GUI interface to web
clients. Command View TL runs on the management station as a service. By
default, this service starts automatically whenever the management station is
booted, and runs invisibly in the background. In most cases, the default
installation settings are adequate.
If you need to stop Command View TL from running on the management station,
use the Services applet that is included with Windows. To access the Services
applet, select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools >
Services and locate the Command View TL service in the list. Use the Services
applet to start and stop services, and to set whether the service is started
automatically when the computer is booted. Refer to the online help that comes
with the Services applet for more information.
Starting Command View TL
To start Command View TL, open your browser, either on the management station
or on a computer that is networked to the management station, and enter the
following URL in the address field:
http://<hostname>:4095/
(where <hostname> is the IP address or network
name of the management station. If you are starting Command View TL on the
management station itself, you can substitute localhost for the hostname).
If the Java™ Runtime Environment (JRE) plugin is not already installed on your
computer and you are using a Windows OS, Command View TL will attempt to
download and install it for you. If you are prompted to install the JRE plugin, click
