Configuring the connection with the gateway

You must determine if the configuration data for the Parlay Connector includes information needed to connect with the Parlay gateway. If the Parlay gateway connection information is included, the Parlay Connector must locate the gateway and make the initial connection.

About this task
Complete these steps to configure the Parlay Connector to connect to the Parlay gateway.
  1. Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console:
    1. Open a browser and navigate to the following URL: https://host_name:port/ibm/console.
      Where:
      • host_name is the fully qualified host name of the server where the application or the network deployment manager is deployed.
      • port is the secured port used to access the console. The default port is 9043.
      Note: The default unsecured port is 9060. If you use 9060, you must have "http" instead of "https" in the URL.
    2. Enter an administrator user ID and password. (Omit the password if security is not enabled.)
    3. Click Log in.
