Installation and 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 of the device.
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.
SCP connection
This connector uses an SCP connection, which is maintained internally by the connector:
SCP CONNECTION:
- IP address: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP Port: 22.
Usage
General Page
This page displays general information about the device, e.g., System Description, Up Time, Firmware Version.
The page also contains the following page buttons:
- SCP Credentials: Allows you to define the username and password for the SCP connection.
- PSU: Shows the available power supply unit and its state.
- Fan: Shows the available fans and their state.
- Ref. Clock: Shows the available reference clocks and parameters related to these.
Network Page
On this page, you can configure and monitor the device's network settings, e.g., Ethernet Hostname, Ethernet IPv4 Gateway, Link Mode.
The page also contains three page buttons:
- Services: Allows you to enable or disable a service provided by an interface.
- Interfaces: Allows you to configure the interfaces of the device.
- Interfaces Statistics: Displays the statistics of the interfaces.
Notification Page
On this page, you can configure the notifications sent by the device, with parameters such as Syslog Address 1 and Mail Address 1.
Security Page
On this page, you can configure the security parameters of the device, such as Disable Root Login and SSH Shell Timeout.
SNMP Page
On this page, you can configure the SNMP settings of the device, such as SNMP Contact and SNMP Activated Versions.
The page also contains one page button, which opens the Trap Config subpage, where you can configure the traps.
NTP Page
On this page, you can configure and monitor the NTP settings of the device, such as NTP Trusttime, Time Scale and PPS.
The page also contains four page buttons with more NTP settings:
- NTP Broadcast

DataMiner Connectivity Framework
The 1.0.1.x connector range of the Meinberg Lantime M300 connector supports the usage of DCF.
DCF can also be implemented through the DataMiner DCF user interface and through DataMiner third-party connectors (for instance a manager).
Interfaces
Fixed interfaces
Physical fixed interfaces:
- RefOut: Physical interface of type out.
Dynamic Interfaces
Virtual dynamic interfaces:
- Ethernet: All interfaces that are available in the Interface Table on the Interfaces Statistics Page. All these interfaces are of type inout.
Connections
Internal Connections
- The Reference Clock in the Ref. Clock Table on the Ref. Clock Page for which the Usage is Primary is connected to the physical interface RefOut.
Notes
A problem can occur with the Usage in the Ref. Clock Table on the Ref. Clock Page for firmware versions prior to 6.20.012, so it is possible that DCF will not work properly with those firmware versions.
