Enensys NetMod DVBT2

This connector is used to monitor the Enensys NetMod DVBT2 device.

About

With this connector, you can retrieve information about the input and output streams of the device (bitrates, frequency, etc.) and configure miscellaneous settings (traps, log file, etc.).

Data is retrieved via the SNMP protocol.

Information about the device is divided over multiple pages, which are grouped as follows:

  • General, Alarms and IP Configuration: Information common to all Enensys devices.
  • NetMod Status, Input/Output, Linear Precondition, Non-Linear Pre-correction, Test Mode: Information specific to the netMod modulator.
  • Web Interface: The native web interface of the device.

Installation and Configuration

Creation

This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:

SNMP Connection:

  • IP address/host: The polling IP of the device, e.g., 10.11.12.13

SNMP Settings:

  • Port number: The port of the connected device, by default 161.
  • Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device. The default value is public.
  • Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device. The default value is private.

Configuration of Alarm Monitoring

In order to enable alarm monitoring for this device in DataMiner's Alarm Console, make sure the parameter Severity Current Alarm is monitored in the alarm template (the default values are recommended). This way all alarms generated by the device will show up in the Alarm Console.

To configure the severity of the generated alarms for the various types of errors, go to the Alarms page and click the Alarm Configurations... page button. You can then configure the severity in the Alarm Configuration Table.
