Introduction

This guide describes how to implement ReliaSoft SEP by Hottinger Bruel & Kjaer Inc. for your organization. It covers tasks that typically require IT expertise.

After the SEP web portal is functional, you can manage users and configure various options via the SEP admin utility. This may require cooperation from an IT admin either to provide the application admin(s) access to run the SEP admin utility on the web server or to manage users and configure settings based on their business requirements. For information about these tasks, see SEP Admin Utility - Manage Users and SEP Admin Utility - SEP Settings in the SEP help.
