AlphaPro
AlphaPro is the professional tool for configuration of the AlphaCom
XE system. It is self contained, simple to install and use. When a new
server is to be configured, it is given a working default factory setting
which may be modified later. AlphaPro works over IP or the local data
port (RS232).
AlphaWeb
AlphaWeb is an embedded web server running on the AlphaCom XE
server. It allows users to log in using a standard web browser such as
Internet Explorer or Firefox to operate and manage the AlphaCom XE
system.
Logging and monitoring
AlphaCom XE comes with powerful logging and monitoring functions,
providing the user with good oversight of system status and events.
Software and system upgrade
AlphaCom XE comes with powerful software and system upgrade
capabilities. New software packages are easily uploaded and stored
to flash via AlphaWeb. In addition, older AlphaCom systems can be
upgraded to AlphaCom XE with only limited hardware changes and
automatic upload and conversion of the old customer database.
Interface to 3rd party management tools
AlphaCom XE has a wide range of open interfaces that supports
integration with 3
rd
party management applications. The 3
rd
party
management application may interface AlphaCom XE using SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol), syslog, HTTP (Hyper Text
Transfer Protocol), NTP (Network Time Protocol), and OPC (open
connectivity via open standards), as well as legacy STENTOFON data
protocols.
