NTI ENTERPRISE ENVIRONMENT MONITORING SYSTEM
77
Note: When using only a secure access configuration (“Enable HTTP Access” is NOT checked), if you intend to connect
to the ENVIROMUX from a location outside the local area network, make sure the firewall on the local area network is
configured to allow traffic through the port assigned to HTTPS requests.
Note: If you are installing the ENVIROMUX with a public IP address and intend to use only a secure access configuration,
you will need to create an x.509 certificate (page 91) and load it into the ENVIROMUX and any PC that will be required to
access the ENVIROMUX.
Read-Only Community Name
The SNMP Read-only community name enables a user to retrieve "read-only" information from the ENVIROMUX using SNMP
network management software or a MIB browser and a MIB file. This name must be present in the ENVIROMUX and in the
proper field in the SNMP software. This name is case sensitive
so be sure to enter it correctly in the ENVIROMUX as well as in
the SNMP software.
Read-Write Community Name
The SNMP Read-Write community name enables a user to read information from the ENVIROMUX and to modify settings on the
ENVIROMUX using SNMP network management software or a MIB browser and MIB file (MIB file version 1.05 or later). This
name must be present in the ENVIROMUX AND in the proper field in the SNMP software. This name is case sensitive
so be
sure to enter it correctly in the ENVIROMUX as well as in the SNMP software.
This function is particularly useful if you want to control the state of the Output Relays (page 54) through SNMP. With
the ENVIROMUX and SNMP network management software properly configured for SNMP control (enable agent, enable
traps, apply Read-only and Read-write Community Names), a SET command can be sent either from the SNMP software
or MIB browser (Windows) or through command line (Linux) to change the outputRelay value state. See Figure 88 on
pa
ge 78 for example of setup.
3G Data Connection
Enable 3G Data Enable if you want the option to have the ENVIROMUX send alert messages through the USB
modem and the option to access the web interface using the IP address assigned to the SIM
card account. The default is disabled. NOTE: In order to access the web interface
through the modem, the SIM card must have a “public” IP address (page 18).
Enable 3G as primary route Enable if you want all messages that are sent by the ENVIROMUX to go through the modem
connection instead of the Ethernet. The default setting is disabled.
Note: If this feature is enabled, and then later disabled, the ENVIROMUX must be
rebooted to reset outgoing messaging parameters.
APN Enter the APN address of the service provider (provided by the service provider)
Dial String Enter the dial string required for data connection(provided by the service provider)
Username Enter the username supplied by service provider for access to connection. Leave blank if no
username is required.
Password Enter the password supplied by service provider for access to connection. Leave blank if no
password is required.
If the administrator chooses to have the IP and DNS information filled in automatically via DHCP, the SMTP server and port
number still need to be entered for email alerts to work. If the SMTP server requires a password in order for users to send emails,
the network administrator must first assign a user name and password to the ENVIROMUX.
Note: The most common SMTP server port number is 25, but it is not necessarily the port number assigned to your
SMTP server. For SMTP servers that support SSL, the common port number is 465, and for those that support TLS, the
common port number is 587.
The administrator may assign a different HTTP Server Port than is used by most servers (80). This might be desired if the
administrator wants a secure connection.
Note: If the port number is changed and forgotten, to determine what it has been changed to connect the ENVIROMUX
for RS232 control (page 15) and review the Network Settings (page 74).
If the SMTP server supports SSL (user authentication), click the block next to “Use SSL” to place a check mark in it.
