In depth
A closer look at IBM Connection Manager
IBM Connection Manager is a lightweight application that allows you to create a connection between your computer and the IBM master console. This is achieved through the use of a VPN or Virtual Private Network tunnel.The application requires no installation as it comes in the form of a .exe file which you only have to run in order to use. It’s a simple and straightforward method in which if you are an IBM representative, you can connect to the master console and offer remote assistance.From the main window of IBM Connection Manager you can select the new destination, make the actual connection and have the application generate the connection ID that is required. The customer connection ID is then displayed in the main window along with the tool status.The addresses that you use for the connection are those that have been previously created in the Network and Dial-up Connections section of Windows settings. If you are using a connection that does not yet exist in that list, then you have to write its name.After you select or enter the name of the destination, clicking the ‘Make Connection’ button will generate the VPN tunnel that is used to connect to the IBM server.The connection ID is created by the application and will be requested by the IBM representative to complete the connection.
