To access the Administration functions and to perform various license management duties, use a browser on the server machine.
Reprise software contains many options. Several of the options can be accessed from multiple locations. Some options are not used at all by the Vectorworks Site Protection Server. The functions described here are covered in greater detail in the RLM user’s guide, RLM_Enduser.html. You can also access the guide by clicking RLM Manual from the main Server Administration screen.
Access to the various server functions can be controlled with a password file; see Requiring Server Passwords.
To open the main Reprise License Server Administration screen:
Launch a browser on the machine that runs the Vectorworks Site Protection Server. Enter localhost:5054 into the URL field.
The Administration screen can be viewed and operated remotely with this URL:
http://server machine's IP address:host number. Normally, this is http://192.168.1.1:5054.
The main Server Administration screen opens.
The buttons on the left side of the Administration screen access the functions of the Vectorworks Site Protection Server. A summary of the main functions is provided here, with links to further explanation.
