Points of attention
- Select the
appropriate activation type:
- To connect to an on-premises installation of LN, select the BW, Rexec, or BaanLogin activation type, and specify the corresponding settings.
- To connect to a multi-tenant cloud installation of LN, specify the HTTP-OAuth2 activation type.
- To connect to a single-tenant cloud installation, specify the HTTP-Basic activation type.
- Select company number 000.
- The application and project data can reside in the same LN environment. If so, you can share the Administrator and ProjectServer connection points. As a result, only one bshell is used to connect to the server, instead of two. This improves the performance.
