saved to your desktop, and record the information listed in Step 1 prior to installation.
Quick Installation of iPrism
The proxy-mode conguration outlined in this guide provides an easy temporary setup for evaluating and testing iPrism
using proxied client trac. Once you are familiar with using iPrism in Proxy-Mode, we recommend reconguring iPrism for
Transparent-Mode deployment to fully utilize the trac management and reporting features.
For more information on installation and conguration (including transitioning to Transparent-Mode), see the iPrism
Installation Guide available on the iPrism support page at https://www.edgewave.com/support/iprism-documentation/
Step 2. Connect the iPrism and Log In
2.1 Connect a monitor and keyboard to the iPrism and log in as the user admin. At the menu, follow the instructions for
setting the IP address for iPrism, including the netmask and default gateway. Make sure these values are reachable
from the workstation you will use to perform the initial iPrism conguration.
