Problem: NFM-P client unable to communicate with NFM-P server

Before you proceed, ensure that the following conditions are present:

The NFM-P client points to the correct IP address and port of the server.
The problem is not a network management domain LAN issue. See Chapter 3, Troubleshooting the NSP platform for more information.
Firewalls between the NFM-P clients and the server are correctly configured


1	To check that the NFM-P client points to the correct IP address and port of the server, open the nms-client.xml file using a text editor. The default file location is installation_directory/nms/config. where installation_directory is the directory in which the NFM-P client software is installed, for example, /opt/nsp/client
2	Verify the IP address of the server as specified by the ejbServerHost parameter.
3	Verify the server port as specified by the ejbServerPort parameter.
4	Modify the IP address and port values, if required.
5	Save the file, if required.
6	Perform Problem: Cannot start an NFM-P server, or unsure of NFM-P server status to check the server status. A client cannot connect to an NFM-P server that is not started.
7	If the server is started, compare the firewall and network configuration guidelines in the NSP Planning Guide with your network configuration to ensure that it complies with the guidelines.
8	Contact your technical support representative if the problem persists. End of steps
