EAServer provides property tabs and three wizards that step you through the process of configuring and tuning a server. You can use property tabs, the wizards, or both, to configure and tune a server. The wizards step you through the configuration process, and the property tabs allow you to select which properties you want to configure in the order you choose. The wizards and property tabs modify the same information. The Advanced tab displays all server settings.
