You can administer multiple computers running Speech Server from one unified console with the Speech Server??Administrator console. It is not necessary to connect the console to each computer running Speech Server to administer it locally. However, you might have more than one administration computer with its own console settings that you use to manage and configure different Speech Server deployment groups. If this is the case, you can use the Speech Server Administrator console to connect to other administration computers and virtually manage their groups from one location.

Important

The Speech Server Administrator console can only connect to administration computers that are running Windows Server 2003 and have the Speech Server Administrative Tools installed. For more information, see How to: Install Administrative Tools. You must also be a member of the local Administrator group on the administration computer to which you are connecting.
