Related settings
You can set configuration related settings in the Settings menu.
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click the Settings menu > Settings > Device Management > Connection Settings .
Values you set in the Default Connection Settings panel must be the same as the SNMP setting values in the device in
order for configuration to work properly. Especially, SNMP Write Community value has to be exactly the same. If you are
using a discovered device, use the Connection Settings button in the Device List to set the SNMP Write Community
value.
Example of practical Configuration usage
After discovering devices and grouping them, you may want to configure specific options for the devices. The following is
an example of grouping devices and configuring them:
There are two customized groups: ‘1F’ and ‘2F’.
Let’s manage them by marking the devices as per the group using Location and Contact, which refers to the public MIB.
(i.e. these values can be configured for all the other vendors’ devices if the devices support public MIB.)
1. From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click the Devices menu > Configuration > Configuration Settings.
2. Select 1F group and select all the devices.
3. Open the configuration category: Network > General. Then you can see Location and Contact items.
4. Type in 1st floor in Location, and 1st floor administrator in Contact.
5. Click OK/Apply.
By doing this, if someone finds any errors or faces a problem with the device, he or she can contact the specific person.
