Section 3 Configuration
Introduction
Before the 800xA Multisystem Integration can be used, it must be configured both
in the provider and the subscriber systems. The configuration is done in three steps:
1. Create and configure the provider (Remote Access Server).
2. Create and configure the subscriber (Remote Access Client).
3. Configure and upload the provider objects and structures.
The configuration of the Remote Access Server in the provider must match the
configuration of the Remote Access Client in the subscriber system.
The information to configure is:
• TCP/IP-addresses for all nodes, mandatory.
• Password, strongly recommended but not mandatory.
• Windows domain users or user mapping, mandatory.

Overview
The 800xA system to be supervised is called the Provider system, since it provides
the supervising system with data. The supervisor system is called the Subscriber ,
since it subscribes to values from the provider.
All engineering and configuration of the provider system is done locally in the
provider system.
