Are there any SurfinGate settings which must be updated when changing the IP address of the server?
Summary: When changing a SurfinGate server’s IP address, it is necessary to update the SurfinGate.cfg file and restart SurfinGate. Full Explanation: When SurfinGate is installed, it stores the server’s IP address and several other parameters in a text file called SurfinGate.cfg. This file is located in SurfinGate’s config directory. If the server’s IP is changed later, SurfinGate.cfg should be edited to reflect this change. Please follow the steps below before changing the IP of a SurfinGate server: 1. From SurfinConsole’s Devices Window, select the SurfinGate server host, and click the Remove button. 2. Close the Devices window, and exit SurfinConsole. 3. Stop SurfinGate. *With the Windows NT version of SurfinGate server, stop the Finjan SurfinGate Service from the Services applet in Control Panel. *With the UNIX version of SurfinGate server, run sfgstop. 4. Open SurfinGate.cfg with a text editor and change the value of the gate_ip_address parameter to the server’s new IP address. 5.U
