The Administration Client contains many features. All of the configuration of the DataSplice Server is completed from within the Administration Client. Before anything else can occur, a few initial tasks must be completed in the Administration Client. These include providing a valid server license, setting up a connection profile, and accessing existing external domains. These tasks, and more, are explained in detail in the Administration Client manual.
