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).

Redundancy

There is no redundancy defined.

Web Interface

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

How to use

The connector uses SNMP retrieval to poll all of its parameters.

The Status page gives an overview of the main parameters from the other pages, so that you can find the most important status information summarized on this page.

The Alarms page contains the main parameters for monitoring.

The connector mirrors the web UI of the device, with the exception of a few parameters that were not exposed via SNMP in the initial development.

Traps are not yet implemented in this initial version.
