Player reverts to old server address on reboot

Post by mark_anderson_us »

Hi Guys

I have a new SF-100e. Put it on a test network yesterday and configured everything. It did a firmware update. It's on
SOFTWARE VERSION
2.6.23.2 11-07-2011 11:24:07

FIRMWARE VERSION
4 07-13-2011 14:28:12


Put on a new network today, entered new server address (pressed Submit), clicked verify (was(OK), rebooted and it comes back up with old server address.

Changed address again, pressed submit, opened new browser, logged in still has old server address. Tried both ie9 and firefox 9. I also tried to reset to defautls earlier (held in reset until the lan link ight went off). Still has old settings

How do I fix this?

Regards

Mark

Ok. I may have figured this out, so for anyone else with same issue

When I changed the server ip address in the players web config page, I saw the disconnected play in the manage tab flash briefly. I went to it's adavnaced tab and saw the server address there was the old one. I changed it (couldn't apply), went back to we config, change server address again and then it connected. It seems that it's connecting to the server and getting the server address from there too. Very puzzling

Regards

Hello Mark,

After the players are configured initially, they can be moved from server to server inside of Noventri Suite. The Web Application is only necessary to set up the players the first time.

When you tried to move the players to a new server - was the new server already running?
