Getting Started: SEH UTN Manager
After the SEH UTN Manager is started, the network has to be scanned for
connected UTN servers. The network range to be scanned is freely definable;
the search can be effected via multicast and/or in definable IP ranges. The
default setting is multicast search in the local network segment.
All UTN servers found and their connected USB devices or USB dongles are
displayed in the 'network list'. To use devices connected to the UTN server, you
have to add the UTN server to the 'selection list'. The devices shown in the
selection list can then be administrated and the connected USB devices or USB
dongles can be used.
This chapter describes how to do these steps.
• ’Starting the SEH UTN Manager’ 11
• ’Finding the UTN Server and Assigning an IP Address’ 12
• ’Adding the UTN Server to the Selection List’ 13

Detailed information on how to use the SEH UTN Manager can
be found in the Online Help. To start the online help, go to the
menu bar and select Help – Online Help.
Important:
Client and UTN server communicate via the UTN port
9200. This port must not be blocked by a security
software (firewall). If necessary, you can change the port
number and use a secure UTN SSL port. A detailed
description can be found in the myUTN User Manual.
The documentation is available via the link on page 9.

Connecting the USB Dongle to the Client
To use a USB dongle, a point-to-point connection is established between the
client and the USB port of the UTN server to which the USB dongle is connected.
The USB dongle can then be used as if it were directly connected to the client.
The USB port is shown in the selection list 13.
All provisions (driver installation, etc.) necessary to operate the USB dongle
locally (i.e. connected directly to the client) have been met on the client. Ide-
ally, the USB dongle has been connected and operated on the client locally
according to the instructions of the manufacturer.
The USB port is not connected to another client.
