Changing the IP address of vSCOUT

Introduction

When the IP address of the host where vSCOUT is running on changes, how does this affect vSCOUT?

 

Solution

Simply reboot the host or restart te vSCOUT process* and the change will be picked-up by nGeniusONE Server automatically.

You may have to adjust the packet forwarding filter in Device Configuration > Devices > Traffic Forwarding to reflect the changed IP address of the host.

• Use nstray to restart the vSCOUT processes. Keep in mind that although the service may seem to restart quickly, it could take several minutes before the process is operational.
