Configuring MetaConsole for NetView
You can change settings that apply to:
• All of MetaConsole
• A MetaConsole Server
• A Service Provider
You can access these settings from outside or inside NetView. Procedures for each follow:
From outside NetView: Enter the name or IP address of the computer running the MetaCon-
sole server. Examples:
• http://MyMetaConsoleServer
• http://190.190.0.0
If the MetaConsole server is running on a port other than 80, specify the port number:
• http://MyMetaConsoleServer:8080
From inside NetView: When a managed device is selected, click MetaConsole on the Tools
menu, and then the appropriate configuration option (as described later in this section).
Either action opens a MetaConsole client window with two panes. You use the navigation
tree in the navigation pane on the left to select the information you want displayed in the de-
tails pane on the right.
If you open the MetaConsole client window from outside NetView, the full navigation tree is
displayed. If you open the window from inside NetView, only the portion of the tree relevant to
your menu selection is displayed.
The full navigation tree includes the following:
• A Help node for access to MetaConsole online help
• A Configuration node for configuring which MetaConsole servers are visible and how
alarms are presented.
• A node for each MetaConsole server which, in turn, contains the following:
• A Version Information node for displaying component version numbers
• A Service Providers node for enabling and disabling service providers
• A View Alarms node for displaying and acknowledging alarm information
• A node for each enabled service provider
All configuration settings for the server or a service provider are maintained by the MetaCon-
sole server and are not client-specific. All clients use the same values; if any client changes a
particular setting, the change affects all clients that use that setting.
