    b) Host Name and Port Number of Application Server on which OIM Server is running
    c) Host Name and Port Number of Web Server configured in front of OIM Server (if NO Web Server is running then use hostname and port number of application server)

Hi Autl,

I have IAM 11gR2 installed on linux VM.
which has IP
localhost.localdomain->127.0.0.1
demo.com-> 192.168.122.1

I am able to access OIM Server on port 7008 on above IPs.
for example,
demo.com:7008/oim/
localhost.localdomain:7008/oim.

I have installed design console on window machine.
I am unable to ping demo.com.

How can design console can communite to OIM server ?

What all activity required for the same?

Help Appreciated.

@ IgnitedMind,
It can’t (change OIM to listen on network IP (on linux) that Windows Server can talk to).

Or configure design console on linux server itself (Its not supported but this works)
