After installation, clients cannot connect to server

Description
After installing the AXIGEN server, clients can't connect to it.
Error cause
For security reasons, all AXIGEN listeners bind only the 127.0.0.1 local IP address, by default.
Resolution
In order to set AXIGEN listeners to bind a non-local IP, edit each listener you want to listen to a non-local IP and set its IP to one of the machine's non-local IP addresses.
For example, if the machine that has AXIGEN installed, has the "192.168.1.1" IP address assigned, from the WebAdmin interface go to Services -> specific service -> Listeners area -> click on the "Edit" button for the listener that has assigned Address: 127.0.0.1:25 and set the IP field to the "192.168.1.1:25" value.
NOTE: If the IP attribute is set to "0.0.0.0:25", then AXIGEN will listen to all IP addresses assigned to that machine.
