Installation

6 Select the Internet Protocol (IP) version, IPv4 or IPv6.
You must install all View components with the same IP version.
7 Make sure that Install HTML Access is selected if you intend to allow users to connect to their
desktops by using HTML Access.
If IPv4 is selected, this setting is selected by default. If IPv6 is selected, this setting is not displayed
because HTML Access is not supported in an IPv6 environment.

Only members of this account can log in to View Administrator, exercise full administration rights, and

domain with an authorized user name and password.
