To manage domains after opening Admin Console, go to View > Preferences > Administration. For more information, see Administration preferences.
2.1.3.2. Domain Setup
Admin Console uses Connext to communicate with other RTI services and Connext processes. When first started, Admin Console asks if you want to automatically or manually join domains. It also includes an option to connect to a remote server.
We recommend using the auto-join option as you go through this manual. To change this setting, go to View > Preferences > Administration. For more information, see Administration preferences.
