Setup

This section covers the setup part for an azeti SONARPLEX appliance. This will help administrators to configure the SONARPLEX appliance for network monitoring.

For configuring an SONARPLEX appliance some information is required:

  • Services, which your appliance should supply
  • Hosts (appliances with an IP Address), which are monitored
  • Host groups (several Hosts regrouped in order to reduce administration work)
  • Time periods, which define when persons are responsible, when services are monitored or rather when alarms are given
  • Contacts (persons who are responsible for monitoring)
  • Contact Groups (several persons who are responsible for the same host or service).

As a first step, define one or several time periods before you define a contact. When you later define the contact, you must assign an existing time period to that contact (see setting service/host notification when/via in How-To Create or Edit a contact).

Please read also for more information the how-to articles that do contain setup related articles too.
