Roon Server installation

[Jens_Petter_Johansen]

Hello community…

I was wondering, when I install a clean Roon Server installation without the control software on my server. Are the “allow connections from remote” on by default? Will my iPad controll app be able to log in by default or do I need to do changes on my server?

Hello Jens,

for shure some People would just tell you RTFM ;-)!
But as I know (by myself) how hard it is to search and find what you are looking for, when you are the first time confronted with a new eco-system I just answer your question.

When your core Installation is on the same Network as your iPad/Android or Windows Software then this is a definite “Yes”.

Just fire up your app and it will find the core-server by ist own.

I just moved my core to a Linux System with a Nuc i5 (means Installation from scratch) and I just needed to start the app in iPad or Windows. The really convenient thing was, that I could just browse for my backup and load it to the new core and all my music was there after some minutes, without processing the audio files again.

When this is not happening, then maybe your core isn’t set up in the right way or it’s on a different Network.

Best regards

René

This is why I created this thread:

Before you start

It seems that allot of new users come here with allot of common issues that are not “In Your face documented” which can be prevented before you even start using Roon. So I wanted to see if we can put something together and all chime in and have it around for new comers to benefit… New to Roon? Welcome! So you want to install Roon? Want a bit more explanation on how Roon architecture comes all together and how it all talks to each other? Go here: How Roon Works and Roon Architecture …
