Adding and Removing CTP Platforms Managed by CTPView Software (CTPView)

Before you can use CTPView to manage the CTP platforms in your network, you must configure the platform information in the CTPView software. In the context of the network, the CTP platforms are often referred to as remote hosts, nodes, and remote platforms.

To add a CTP platform to your network:

In the side pane, select Server > Administration.
The Administrative Functions pane is displayed.
Enter a unique name for the remote host.
Enter a management IP address for the host.
This address is used for the CTPView management connection to the host.
If the host is running CTPOS 4.1 or lower, select the checkbox.
Enter a password to be used by the CTPView software when accessing the host.
Select a group to associate with the host; only the default group is available if no other groups have been configured.
Select the model number for the host.
Include or exclude the host from monitoring by the CTPView software by selecting Yes or No.
Select how the CTPView software accesses the host when the host has been including for network monitoring.
Select the SNMP community associated with the host.
Click Add New Remote Host.

To remove a CTP platform from your network:

In the side pane, select Server > Administration.

The Administrative Functions pane is displayed.
Click the Remove Remote Host field, select the group to which the host belongs, and then select the remote host.
Click Remove Remote Host.
