When licensed to do so, Broadlinx will also support SNMP/NetCentral

monitoring.

The monitoring network consists of a Windows PC, network interface

connection (NIC) circuitry on the NR-33000 board, and microproces-

sors on each circuit board in the system. All of the processors are inter-

connected via a communications bus (Com Bus).

Broadlinx Web Page Monitoring

Broadlinx uses HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) web pages to

deliver detailed system information through the network to a PC with

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or newer (Internet Explorer 6 or newer

is recommended for best performance).

Typical aspects that can be monitored as “warnings” or alarms are all

the voltages on each circuit board, input signal presence, and output

reclocking status. Also, information on the current version of firmware

that is being used is available.
