  • Set community string: OpenHeadend

Web Interface

The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.

How to Use

You can find more information about the data display pages of the connector below.

General Page

This page displays the server System ID, Version, Vendor, Time, Name, and IP Address (which represents the polling IP), as well as the Total Memory, Memory Cache, Free Memory, and Memory Buffers.

There are two page buttons:

  • Ping: Opens a page where you can enable or disable ping, set the ping cycle, configure the timeout, and see information about the pinging.
  • Licensing: Opens a page with tables containing licensing information.

There are also two tables, which show a List of CPUs and Disks.

This page displays two user-configurable tables containing the Network and Storage Links.

Nodes Page

This page displays information regarding the Configured Nodes.

Functions and Operations Page

This page displays information regarding the Configured Functions, Configured Operations, and Operation Transcode AAC that are created in the device.

By default, the display key of the Configured Operations table contains the Function Name for the given operation. If you need the Operation Name to be part of the display key, set the Operation Display Key Format parameter to the value {ID}/{Type}/{Operation Name}.

Note

If you want alarms to be triggered for datetime parameters such as the Last Up/Down columns, you will need to calculate the numeric value for a specific date and use that in the alarm template.

Schedules and Jobs Page

This page displays information regarding both the Configured Schedules and Configured Jobs that are created in the device.

Workflow Page

This page displays information regarding the relationships between the Function Monitor Table and Function Record Table.

Function Tree Page

This page displays a tree structure for every Configured Function, showing each operation that is related to that particular function.

Schedule Tree Page

This page displays a tree structure for every Configured Schedule, showing each job that is related to that particular schedule.

Web Interface Page

This page displays the web interface of the device.

Note that the client machine has to be able to access the device, as otherwise it will not be possible to open the web interface.
