Site Creation Wizard: Offline Area and Client Kit
An offline area is a shared directory that is used to transfer inventory data from Clients to Consoles, and to transfer instructions and installation information from Consoles to Clients. Use the Offline Area and Client Kit dialog to specify the account with which you want Clients to access this offline area.
To specify the Offline Area settings for an Evaluation Site:
1 By default, Vector AM Clients use the offline area account to access the offline area. If you want your Clients to use this account, make sure Use the Offline Area account is selected.
If you want Clients to use another account to access the offline area, select Use the following account and enter the account details in the Username, Password, and Verify password fields.
The account must have user-level privileges, ideally with Interactive Logon disabled, and must be valid for all Clients using this offline area. If the account belongs to a domain, you must also enter its Domain name.
2 Click Next to continue. The Client Deployment and Network Device Discovery dialog is displayed.
