HOW TO OPERATE DOWNSTREAM KEYER USING VISTALINK® PRO
4.1. WHAT IS
V
ISTA
LINK
®
?
Vista
LINK
®
is Evertz’s remote monitoring and configuration platform which operates over an Ethernet
network using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP is a standard computer network
protocol that enables different devices sharing the same network to communicate with each other.
Vista
LINK
®
provides centralized alarm management, which monitors, reports, and logs all incoming alarm
events and dispatches alerts to all the VLPro Clients connected to the server. Card configuration through
Vista
LINK
®
PRO can be performed on an individual or multi-card basis using simple copy and paste
routines, which reduces the time to configure each module separately. Finally,
Vista
LINK
®
enables the
user to configure devices in the network from a central station and receive feedback that the configuration
has been carried out.
There are 3 components of SNMP:
1. An SNMP manager, also known as a Network Management System (NMS), is a computer
running special software that communicates with the devices in the network. Evertz VistaLINK
®
Pro Manager graphical user interface (GUI), third party or custom manager software may be
used to monitor and control Evertz
Vista
LINK
®
enabled fiber optic products.
2. Managed devices, each with a unique address (OID), communicate with the NMS through an
SNMP Agent.
3. A virtual database, known as the Management Information Base (MIB), lists all the variables
being monitored, which both the Manager and Agent understand. Please contact Evertz for
further information about obtaining a copy of the MIB for interfacing to a third party
Manager/NMS.
