Verifying Hosted Reports
You can verify that a report has been hosted correctly and that the Web server and related
infrastructure have been set up correctly. To do this, follow these steps:
1. View the hosted report from outside of the network (like a normal visitor would
view the report). For example, if the report is hosted on a Web server that is
protected by a firewall, connect from outside of the firewall.
2. Visit the start index page, e.g. http://types.echelon.com, and make sure the
page displays correctly.
3. Visit at least one sub index for each resource file set listed on a start index page.
For example, visit the list of network variables for the first reported resource file
set, the list of configuration properties for the second one, and so forth.
4. Visit at least one detailed report for each type of reported resource. Make sure to
view at least one network variable type report, one configuration property
report, and so forth.
5. Follow at least one internal cross-reference (if applicable). For example, if the
report contains a configuration property type that refers to a network variable
type, and that network variable type is also hosted on the same server, make sure
to view this configuration property type and follow the link to the network
variable type.
6. Follow at least one external cross-reference (if applicable). For example, if the
report contains a configuration property type that refers to a standard network
variable type, and that standard network variable type is referred to on the
standard location at http://types.lonmark.org, make sure to view this
configuration property type and follow the link to the network variable type.
Note that external references may not be bi-directional (the standard network
variable type may not link back to your configuration property type), whereas
internal references are.
