Verify the configuration works
- Manually start the ACC Server from the Admin Panel and verify it runs.
- Reboot the machine hosting the ACC Server service.
- When the host machine starts up, do not log in.
- From a separate physical PC, use the ACC Client to check if the ACC Server service is visible on the network and usable.
