Configuration
Creation
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.
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, by default public.
- Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device, by default private.
Web Interface
The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.
How to Use
This connector not only allows you to monitor the Gates Air LX but also allows additional configuration.
One of the important settings can be found on the Alarms page. Thresholds can be configured for each alarm in collaboration with the Type and (analog out) source parameters. The alarm status will indicate Fail or OK depending on whether the configured threshold values are exceeded or not. You can not only configure the thresholds, but also enable email notifications or configure a delay, so that an alarm is only generated after a threshold has been exceeded for a specific time.
Note that this alarm configuration is set on the GatesAir LX itself and the alarm monitoring functionality in DataMiner can be used as well.
