What Is It?​

The Server Options page in Solution Manager is the central location for viewing the system-wide configuration settings that control OpCon behavior. The settings are organized into categories, each shown on its own tab, including General, Security, Logging, Notification, SMTP, Time, Vision, and SSO.
