Configuring ACSEI
Overview
As a private protocol, ACSEI has a server and a client:
•
The ACSEI server is integrated into the software system (Comware) of the device and is supported
by the device.
•
The ACSEI client is integrated into the system software (Comware) of the device, making it a function
supported by the device.
ACSEI functions
ACSEI provides the following functions:
•
Registration and deregistration of an ACSEI client to the ACSEI server.
•
ID assignment. The ACSEI server assigns IDs to ACSEI clients to distinguish between them.
•
Mutual monitoring and awareness between an ACSEI client and the ACSEI server.
•
Information interaction between the ACSEI server and ACSEI clients, including clock
synchronization.
•
Control of the ACSEI clients on the ACSEI server. For example, you can close or restart ACSEI client
on the ACSEI server.
An ACSEI server can register multiple ACSEI clients. The maximum number of ACSEI clients that an
ACSEI server allows to register is 10.
ACSEI timers
An ACSEI server uses the clock synchronization timer and the monitoring timer.
•
The clock synchronization timer is used to periodically trigger the ACSEI server to send clock
synchronization advertisements to ACSEI clients. You can set this timer through command lines.
•
The monitoring timer is used to periodically trigger the ACSEI server to send monitoring requests to
ACSEI clients. You can set this timer through command lines.
An ACSEI client starts the registration timer and the monitoring timer. You cannot set either of these
timers.
•
The registration timer is used to periodically trigger the ACSEI client to multicast registration requests
(with the multicast MAC address being 010F-E200-0021).
•
The monitoring timer is used to periodically trigger the ACSEI client to send monitoring requests to
the ACSEI server.
ACSEI startup and running
ACSEI starts up and runs in the following procedures:
1.
Run the ACSEI client application to enable ACSEI client.
2.
Start up the device and enable the ACSEI server function on it.
