9.467 Newtec-PEP

This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Newtec PEP . The driver accesses the device via HTTP do get the overall status information. To monitor the interface state and other common parameters use the MIB2-Interface-Monitor device . It works for a single PEP or for a 1+1 redundant configuration.

Device window pages

The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type. Tool-bar functions not mentioned here are described at the general description of device windows .

• --- Status information
• --- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.

Configuration parameters

At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the AZ110.

• parameter --- description

• address --- The IP address of the HTTP interface and the port number.aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:pppp

  • aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd --- The IP address of the device in 'dotted quad' notation. This field is mandatory.
  • pppp --- The IP port number where the device accepts SNMP requests. The port number may be omitted, the driver uses the standard port 161 in this case.

• config.host1 --- For redundant config only: hostname of the first PEP

• config.host2 --- For redundant config only: hostname of the second PEP

1+1 Redundancy

If two PEP's are configured in a 1+1 redundancy, they share a common IP address. Only the running (master) PEP will provide the TelliNet Webinterface on this address (normally on port 8000)

Configure only one Newtec-PEP device in the sat-nms software and set the address to the common IP address and configure the hostnames of both units. The driver will compare both names against the name of the active PEP and you can access this information via the parameter active .
