 Static IP addressing: If you choose static IP addressing, you must configure the MC
IP address and subnet mask. The gateway address, broadcast address and domain are
optional and can be left blank. After you update the IP address settings, the MC
restarts the network interface using the new settings.
3.4.3 Configure DNS
The Configure DNS option lets you configure the Domain Name Server(s) and search
domain(s) used by the MC. The MC queries the DNS Server(s) to determine if the MC DNS
SRV record and connection broker DNS SRV record are present. The status of these records
appears in the site status on the Home webpage. See section 4.9 for details.
Note: When the MC is configured to use DHCP, the DNS settings configured here may be
overwritten by the settings configured in the DHCP server.
3.5 Database Management
The MC maintains a database containing information on the discovered PCoIP devices,
configuration data, such as device name, and other information such as firmware images that
can be downloaded to PCoIP devices. The MC VM console supports commands that let you
back up and restore this database. You should use this feature when you upgrade the MC.
Before you install the new version of the MC:
1. Back up the MC database.
2. Export the database to an external PC.
3. Install the new version of the MC.
4. Import the backed up database.
Select the Manage database option shown in Figure 3-1 to access these commands. Figure
3-3 shows the MC Manage database options.
