Install IPAM Client
Applies To: Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012
Checklist: Deploy IPAM Client > Install RSAT > Install IPAM Client
IPAM Client is installed by default on the local computer when you install IPAM Server. IPAM Client is also available by default on a computer running Windows® 8 when you install the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) for Windows 8. If you are using a remote computer running Windows Server® 2012 to connect to an IPAM server, use the following procedure to install IPAM Client.
Membership in the Administrators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).
The server pool and IPAM Client
If the local computer is running Windows Server 2012, the local server is available in the server pool by default. If the local computer is running Windows 8, you must add at least one server to the pool that supports remote management.
If the IPAM Server computer is already available in the Server Manager server pool, you can skip the procedure below to add a server to the pool, and proceed directly to install IPAM Client. If the IPAM server is not currently available in the server pool, you can use the following basic procedure to add a server to the pool. For detailed information about adding servers to Server Manager, see Add Servers to Server Manager (https://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh831453.aspx).
To add a server to the server pool
On the Server Manager menu, click Manage and then click Add Servers.
In Add Servers, on the Active Directory tab, next to Location choose the domain of the destination server, next to Operating System choose All, type the name of the server next to Name (CN), and then click Find Now.
Click the name of the server under Name, click the add icon, verify the server name is displayed under Selected, and then click OK.
To install IPAM Client
In the Server Manager welcome tile, click Add roles and features.
In the Add Roles and Features Wizard, click Next, choose Role-based or feature-based installation, and then click Next.
On the Select destination server page, choose the server you will use to run IPAM Client and then click Next twice (skip the select roles page).
On the Select features page, select the checkbox next to Remote Server Administration Tools\Feature Administration Tools\IP Address Management (IPAM) Client.
If a popup dialog box is displayed requesting additional features to be installed, click Add Features.
Click Next, and then click Install.
