System management
This section introduces the PTP 800 management system, including the web interface,
installation, configuration, alerts and upgrades.
Management agent
PTP 800 equipment is managed through an embedded management agent. Management
workstations, network management systems or PCs can be connected to this agent using
an in-band mode, or a choice of two out-of-band modes. These modes are described in
detail in
The management agent supports the following interfaces:
•
Hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP)
•
HTTP over transport layer security (HTTPS/TLS)
•
RADIUS authentication
•
Simple network management protocol (SNMP)
•
Simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP)
•
Simple network time protocol (SNTP)
•
System logging (syslog)
Web server
The PTP 800 management agent contains a web server. The web server supports the HTTP
and HTTPS/TLS interfaces.
Operation of HTTPS/TLS is enabled by purchase of an optional AES upgrade as described
in
Task 3: Installing license keys
Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage the PTP 800 equipment from a
locally connected computer or from a network management workstation connected
through a management network, without requiring any special management software. The
web-based interfaces are the only interfaces supported for system installation, and for the
majority of configuration management tasks.
Transport layer security
The HTTPS/TLS interface provides the same set of web-pages as the HTTP interface, but
allows HTTP traffic to be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). PTP 800 uses
AES encryption for HTTPS/TLS.
