10. Wait for the management server to restart, approximately five minutes. During this time, a pop-up window displays that reads “The connection to the management server was lost. A connection to the server could not be established.” This message is normal when restarting the management server and can be ignored. When this pop-up displays, click Close. For LXCA v4.0 and later, a login screen should be presented once the LXCA management server has restarted.
11. If necessary, refresh the browser to return to the LXCA login page, then log in using the primary supervisor account created earlier.
    The Initial Setup page displays, this time with the first three tasks checked.
