Assign a Computer Name
In a Symphony network, each computer is assigned a name so that it can be
easily identified by the other devices on the network. The Symphony Com-
poser Installation Wizard will determine if your computer has already been
assigned a name, and if not, it will prompt you to enter one. The Computer
Name may be up to 15 alphanumeric characters long.

Create a Virtual Modem
For Conductor networks that share a dial-up modem, the Composer creates a
virtual modem entry on the client computers which allows applications to use
the shared modem as if it were locally installed. In addition, the Composer
assigns the modem a COM port number so that it may be used by communica-
tion programs that identify a modem by its COM port rather than by its name.

Select Drives and Printers to Share
The Symphony Composer will generate a list of the computer’s hard drives,
CD-ROM drives, floppy drives, and printers that may be shared with other
computers on the wireless network. To share a resource, place a check mark
next to its entry in the device list. Note that the Composer will display two
configuration screens: one for sharing drives and one for sharing printers.
When sharing a computer’s drive, click the entry multiple times to toggle
between several access levels that may be granted to remote users. The
options are Read/Write access, Read Only access, or no access.

If you configure a drive with Read/Write or Read Only access, Proxim recom-
mends that you establish a password to prohibit unauthorized access. Depend-
ing on the type of Internet connection you have, others may be able to see your
computers in their Network Neighborhood or My Network Places icon and
have unauthorized access to your drives.
