Setting Up Connection to Physical Server

The starting point of the Migration wizard is establishing a connection to the physical server you wish to migrate.

To do this you need to specify the server IP address or hostname in the IP Address or Hostname field. The IP address and hostname should be the ones the server is recognized by on a network. After you have filled in the server coordinates, you have to provide the administrator's credentials (user name and password) you use to log in to the migrating server. The default user name for the Linux-based server is root, the default user name for the Windows-based server is Administrator unless you have created a different user account. In this case you are expected to enter the user name you have adopted for a new user account. Mind that the new user must have the scope of rights the Linux root user or the Windows administrator is endowed with.

After you have entered all the required information, click Connect to set up a connection to the server.
