2 GUI Cut-Through (GCT)
LightSOFT manages a network through an Element Management System (EMS) which provides LightSOFT
with the information it needs to maintain the network. At times you may need to use LightSOFT to view
windows from the EMS. Normally, this would require you to log in to the EMS on the local terminal, and
locate the information manually. To make things easier and more efficient, LightSOFT's GCT allows you to
view EMS information without having to start an individual EMS session.
To be integrated with LightSOFT, the EMS-NPT server, EMS-NPT client, and LightSOFT are installed on
different non-global zones, as shown in the following figure.
As shown in the figure, EMS-NPT client should be configured as Client-Server and provide GCT for several
EMS-NPT servers.
If you install EMS-NPT on a PC with more than one network card, you must configure the EMS-NPT to tell
the NBI which IP you want to use, as described in the following procedure.
To define the IP in the NBI:

1. Go to the EMS-NPT installation folder and find the file: /etc/emsserver.properties.
2. Double-click to open the file and find the string "RegisterIORHost = 127.0.0.1" in the NBI Main
Configuration area.
3. Overwrite the default IP 127.0.0.1 with the desired IP.
4. Save the file.
