Adding a Desktop Server Connection

Overview

When using the TapeTrack Desktop Software you will have to have one or more TapeTrack Framework Server entries defined so that you can connect to a server endpoint.

This can be done in the following ways:

  1. Adding a connection interactively.
When using TapeTrack TapeMaster that was installed as part of the TapeTrack Framework Server installation, an entry for localhost will be automatically added by the installer.

Prerequisites

To configure a server you will need the following information:

  1. The server IP address or DSN name.
  2. The server port (usually 5000).
  3. If you are connecting via a HTTP Proxy:
    • The proxy IP address or DNS Name.
    • The proxy port
    • The proxy user name (if authentication is required)
    • The proxy password (if authentication is required)
