Adding additional servers to the Master Server

If you have multiple Access Connect servers you designate one server as the master server that the Zidget will contact to discover the other Access Connect servers on the network. The master server has an XML file on it called MasterServerList.xml that lists the other servers on the network. If you only have one server on your network you may use the MasterServerList.xml that is autogenerated by that server. An auto-generated MasterServerList.xml file is identical to the ServerList.xml file that the server would return. The format of the ServerList.xml and auto-generated MasterServerList.xml is as follows:

http://ExtremeZIPServerList:8081/ServerList.xml
<?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”UTF-8”?>
<servers>
<serverListVersion>1.0</serverListVersion>
<minimumClientVersion>1.4</minimumClientVersion>
<server>
<AFPPort>548</AFPPort>
<LPRPort>515</LPRPort>
<display_name>EXAMPLE IP</display_name>
<hostname>example.acronis.com</hostname>
<port>8081</port>
<description/>
<location/>
<protocol>afp</protocol>
<protocol>ezip</protocol>
</server>
</servers>

To make a manually generated MasterServerList.xml, you take the information from each server and put it in one file. The HTML Files folder inside the Access Connect program folder also contains a TemplateMasterServerList.xml that you can modify to contain the information specific to your organization.
