WHAT IS VISTALINK
®
?
VistaLINK
®
is Evertz’s remote monitoring and configuration platform which operates over an Ethernet
network using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP is a standard computer network
protocol that enables different devices sharing the same network to communicate with each other.
Vista
LINK
®
provides centralized alarm management, which monitors, reports, and logs all incoming alarm
events and dispatches alerts to all the VLPro Clients connected to the server. Card configuration through
VistaLINK
®
PRO can be performed on an individual or multi-card basis using simple copy and paste
routines, which reduces the time to configure each module separately. Finally, VistaLINK
®
enables the
user to configure devices in the network from a central station and receive feedback that the configuration
has been carried out.
An SNMP manager, also known as a Network Management System (NMS), is a computer running special
software that communicates with the devices in the network. Evertz VistaLINK
®
Pro Manager graphical
user interface (GUI), third party or custom manager software may be used to monitor and control Evertz
VistaLINK

enabled products.
