Installing Faronics Insight

Planning the Installation

Before installing Faronics Insight, review the following requirements and ensure your network

and computers are running smoothly. Doing so will prevent problems during installation.

In most cases, the Insight software running on a computer is referred to as the Teacher or Student

(uppercase), as opposed to the users-the actual teachers and students (lowercase) or their general

devices.

Consider these issues before beginning installation:

Determine Insight architecture for your enviroment

There is a new, optional method to install Faronics Insight called the Insight Connection Server.

The Insight Connection Server is based on a client-server architecture, where the traditional

Insight install is based on a peer-to-peer architecture. The Insight Connection Server will reduce

the need for configuration changes to routers and wireless access points to support wired/wireless

environments and VLANs.

The existing peer-to-peer architecture will still exist and in many instances may still be the

preferred method to install Insight.

Faronics will also support a hybrid environment of both peer-to-peer and client-server

architectures.

Before installing, you will need to think about which architecture will be best for your

organization. Here are some things to think about when making your decision.

Peer-to-Peer

Pros

• Simple, quick install to teachers and students, no server is required

• Uses less network traffic

• No configuration changes if your labs are all the same subnet

• Perfect for single classroom or small schools

• Scalable for large districts as long as you can make networking changes to allow Multicast or

• Directed Broadcast

• Redundancy is built into the architecture, there is no single point of failure (server)

Cons

• Traffic does not cross subnets without router, wireless access point modification

• If your wired and wireless networks are not connected, you must make configuration changes

to allow broadcast/multicast packets to traverse both networks
