Select the
Config
option to open a detailed configuration page for the selected sensor.
The difference between the menus presented here and the menus presented on the
Defaults page is that settings are applied to individual channels.
The submenus contain all the options in the Defaults menu, plus two additional options:
Name
Sensor channels can be assigned names for ease of identification (for example, “Server
Room Sensor” or “UPS Battery Fail”).
Type
The type of connected sensor is specified here. The sensor channels can be set to auto
detect, temperature, humidity, contact, or disabled.
Note
: Occasionally, clear traps will be sent to the NMS trap receivers while a sensor is
being connected to a device. This is considered normal behavior, because some voltage
surges may be produced when input sensors are physically connected to the gateway.
In normal operation, the sensors will always be connected to the device and the sensor
voltages will stay within normal expected values
LDAP
E24 LDAP Overview
The E24 implements a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) client.
This allows the E24 unit to authenticate user logins to the Web Management Interface
(WMI) using an LDAP Directory.
If LDAP is used for authentication it is first consulted when a user attempts a login. If the
user is not found or access is denied by LDAP then the credentials are checked against
the E24 internal user list.
Note!Configuration of LDAP is an advanced topic and requires existing knowledge of
LDAP function and setup (or access to personnel who do).
E24 LDAP Structure
In order for a E24 unit to successfully authenticate a user for WMI login it needs to be
‘pointed’ to a specific structure within a directory.
A unit is ‘pointed’ to this structure within a directory by specifying the Unit Base DN on
the Network Setup – LDAP page.
The following Organisational Units will need to be created:
