Command Line Installation

The Insight Teacher Application supports the use of command line options to configure the product during the installation process. These options can be used with a variety of deployment tools to push the Teacher Application to systems without requiring user intervention.

Command Line OptionDescription

/classID <value>

During installation, this will set the default Class ID to the value specified. The value can be any valid alphanumeric Class ID.

/adminPwd <value>

This option configures the Administrator Password on the client system using the value specified after the command line switch.

/connectorServer <value>

This option configures the Insight Teacher to communicate with the Insight Connector located at the IP address, Hostname, or FQDN specified.

Example: /connectorServer insight

/connectorServer 192.168.1.10

/connectorServer insight.example.domain.com

/consolePwd <value>

This option configures the Password to access the Insight Teacher console on the client system using the value specified after the command line switch.

/sharedSecret <value>

This option configures Insight to make use of the Enhanced Security option using the value specified as the Security Token.

Example:

/sharedSecret Password123

/suppressreboot

This option will suppress the reboot of the client system after the Insight Teacher is installed. Insight may not be fully enabled until the client machine is rebooted after the install process.

/setlk

During installation, this option will set the license key for Insight through the command line. When set, Insight will skip the page for entering the license key and open to the Class ID/Classroom login page when launched. License keys must be entered exactly as given, including the dashes. The license key looks like this: XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX

/upgrade

This option silently upgrades the Insight Teacher application with existing settings.

An example installation command line is shown below:

InsightInstallerTeacher.exe /classID Class101 /adminPwd Password123 /consolePwd TeacherPassword123 /sharedSecret securecommunication
