# How to Set Up Publishing Servers


You can use the following procedures to add and configure Application Virtualization Servers directly from the Client Management Console.

**To add an application publishing server**

1.  In the **Results** pane, right-click and select **New Server** from the pop-up-menu to start the New Application Virtualization Server Wizard, or alternatively, right-click the **Publishing Server** node and select **New Server** from the pop-up-menu.

2.  On page one of the wizard, enter the name of the server in the **Display Name** field and select the server type from the **Type** drop-down list. You can choose **Application Virtualization Server**, **Enhanced Security Application Virtualization Server**, **Standard HTTP Server**, or **Enhanced Security HTTP Server** from the drop-down list of server types.

3.  Click **Next**.

4.  On page two of the wizard, type the appropriate information into the **Host Name** and **Port** fields. The **Path** field is not editable for Application Virtualization Servers. You must enter a path for Standard HTTP Server or Enhanced Security HTTP Server.

5.  Click **Finish** to add the server.
