Chapter 15 - DMS (Device Management System)
The Transition Networks DMS (Device Management System) is an intelligent
management tool embedded in the switch to intuitively help IT/TS in reducing
support time, cost, and effort. In the SMxTAT2SA main menu pane on the left,
navigate to the DMS tab to display the main DMS features: DMS Mode, Graphical
Monitoring, Management, and Maintenance. DMS features include:
• DMS automatically discovers and displays all devices connected to the switch
using standard networking protocols such as LLDP, UPnP,
ONVIF
, etc.
• DMS supports up to 256 devices within four subnets.
• DMS operates via an intuitive web GUI to allow you to:
o Power down the IP cameras, NVRs, or any PoE devices.
o Remotely identify the exact cable break location.
o Detect abnormal traffic issues on IP cameras/NVR.
o Monitor devices' status (e.g., link up, PoE power, traffic, etc.).
o Configure VLAN/QoS intuitively for better solution quality/reliability.
