System Management Tools

System Management Tools

TANDBERG provides a comprehensive set of system management tools, and is committed to the use of standards-based tools.

The TANDBERG MPS can be managed in many ways:

• The internal web server allows for remote

control of the MCU using a web interface

from anywhere on the LAN/WAN/Internet

(open browser http://System Controller

Board-ipaddress).

• SSH and Telnet for local control and diag-

nostics.

• The TANDBERG Management Suite (TMS)

may also be used to manage the system

and the TANDBERG Scheduler may be

used to schedule conference meetings

(Optional).

• XML and SOAP interface for full manage-

ment of MPS through remote application.

Using a Web Browser

Management using a standard Web-brows- er

The web-browser is the most common way to manage the TANDBERG MPS giving access to all managing features of the MCU.

Using a standard Web-browser (Mozilla Firefox, MS Internet Explorer 5.0 or later), the user may perform all forms of meeting set-up and control, but also diagnostics, trouble- shooting and software upgrade.

Open a web browser and enter:

•<http://MPS IP Address> or

•<https://MPS IP Address>

•Example: <http://10.0.5.203>

Using a SSH Client

Management using a SSH Client

The TANDBERG MPS also supports remote login through Secure Shell (SSH).This gives the user the same functionality as from the web interface. In addition it provides the user with advanced debug capabilities. Both ends of the client/server connection are authenticated using a digital certificate, and passwords are protected by being encrypted.

This interface is a command-line type interface, not a graphical interface like the Web-browser interface. The system supports multiple simultaneous SSH sessions. See the TANDBERG MPS API document, supplied with the system or on www.tandberg.com, for de- tails on the API commands available via SSH.

Using XML and SOAP

Management using XML

System Management by using XML can be done from System Configuration > XML Docu- ment. The XML Uploading page, allows admin- istrators to upload configuration changes to the MPS in one go, instead of manually setting each entry via the web interface.

Management using SOAP

By using the MPS WSDL file, developers can manage the MPS through SOAP web services. The wsdl file can be accessed on the MPS through a standard web browser at

<http://<MPS IP Address/webservic- es.wsdl>

These web services reflect the same function- ality as can be found in the document:

<http://MPS IP Address/command.xml>

Using TMS

Management using TMS

Management of the MPS can also be achieved by registering the MPS with TMS (TANDBERG Management Suite).

Once registered to TMS, administrators will be able to update many of the MPS settings.

TMS users will also have the ability to auto- matically schedule conferences on the MPS using the settings defined in TMS.

Using a Standard Telnet Client

Management using a standard Telnet Client

This gives the user the same functionality as SSH and provides the user with advanced de- bug capabilities. The interface is a command- line type interface.

The system supports multiple simultaneous Telnet sessions.

Backup using SCP

Using SCP for Personal Conferences and Gateway Rules backup.

1.

Login to the MPS using an SCP program

 

such as WinSCP (Note that SSH must be

 

enabled on the MPS to use SCP).

2.

The user name will be “root” and the

 

password will be the normal MPS password

 

(default is TANDBERG).

3.

Navigate to the “persistent” folder.
