SNMP Main Connection
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 or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination.
SNMP Settings:
- Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device (default: public).
- Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device (default: private).
Serial IP Connection
This connector uses a serial connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SERIAL CONNECTION:
Interface connection:
- IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 23).
- Bus address: The bus address of the device.
Initialization
No extra configuration is needed in range 1.0.0.x.
From range 1.0.1.x onwards, the connector retrieves matrix information via serial communication. This requires that the command protocol on the Port Settings page of the device is set to Crosspoint Remote Control 2.
Web Interface
The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.
How to use
This connector will poll the Power Status, Fan Status, CPU Status, Card Status, Slot Status, SDI Status, Remote Units Status and GPI Units Status.
You can find the received traps in the Traps table on the Traps page. When a specific trap is received, the connector will poll the corresponding parameter(s) again to have the latest data.
From range 1.0.1.x onwards, a matrix is available, representing the Sources (inputs) and Destinations (outputs).
When setting a label, you can use the prefix "A_" or "K_" to indicate whether you want to set the ASCII or Kanji name.
