# Server IP Address Configuration Tool

Change Server IP Address

This section explains how to change the IP address and/or the port used by the AWC Plug-in and the SNMP Plug-in server.

> Note

> > After restarting the server or changing the IP address or port of the server, the AWC Plug-in shows the last retrieved Management Status for unreachable APs. This may not be up-to-date. Once the APs become reachable again, the latest status will be displayed.

## Change Server IP Address

To change the AWC Plug-in and SNMP Plug-in server's IP address, follow the steps below.
If you have registered both the AWC and SNMP Plug-ins, the following procedures change both servers' IP address.

> Note

> > When you change the IP Address of the AWC Plug-in, operate with the AWC Plug-in service running.
> > If operated while the AWC Plug-in service is being stopped, the operation result might not be applied correctly.

1. Right-click [Vista Manager EX Installation Directory]\Plugins\AT-AWC\tools\change_server_ip_address\change_server_ip_address.bat and click "Run as administrator".
2. Select the new address and click "Change" on the "Change Server IP Address" tool.
3. When the "Are you sure you want to change the IP address? " message appears, click "Yes".
4. When you see the message "The IP address has been successfully changed. If AWC Plug-in has been installed, please restart the AT-AWC Server by using the menu item on the program men ", click "OK" and close the tool.
5. From the Windows program menu, select "AT-Vista Manager EX" > "AT-AWC - Stop Server".
   This runs a batch file, which will terminate the AWC Plug-in processes.
   If you have installed the SNMP Plug-in, stop the SNMP Plug-in processes by selecting "AT-Vista Manager EX" > "AT-SNMP - Stop Server" from the program menu.
6. After the batch file to stop the server has finished, select "AT-Vista Manager EX" > "AT-AWC - Start Server" to restart the AWC Plug-in processes.
   If you have installed the SNMP Plug-in, start the SNMP Plug-in processes by selecting "AT-Vista Manager EX" > "AT-SNMP - Start Server" from the program menu.

> Note

> > If you changed the server's IP address, make sure you do step 5 and 6 in order to restart the Plug-in processes regardless of whether you restarted Windows or not.

> Note

> > If you have registered the AWC and/or SNMP plug-ins on Vista Manager EX, you have to re-register the plug-ins on the Plug-in Management page after changing the IP address.
> > If you have changed the port of the AWC Plug-in service, specify the port number after the hostname and a colon, for example "192.168.1.1:8443".
