5. Testing Connectivity from a Local Machine


Note that during the workshop, you will be connecting to the OBIEE 11g environment using your local machine web browser. In order to do that, please follow the following steps:

5.1. Identify your VM IP address


Open a new Terminal window and execute /sbin/ifconfig.

You can identify the VM IP address by checking the value under eth0 > inet addr. In this case, the IP is 192.168.184.130.

5.2. Test Connection from your Local Machine


Open an Internet Explorer window and type in the following address into the address bar:
http://<VM_IP_address>:9704/analytics

You will have to replace <VM_IP_address > with the value found in the previous step. In this case, the full address is:
http://192.168.184.130:9704/analytics
