Features
The features are a collection of additions available for the DD1000i. Features are configured in the DD Manager.
SNMP monitoring
Apart from the DD Manager, the DD1000i can also be accessed on the admin interface, using SNMP. This requires SNMP support to be enabled, which can be configured in the DD Manager.
If SNMP is enabled, the SNMP agent can be contacted on the IP address of the admin interface using port 161. All values are read-only, i.e. SNMP can only be used for monitoring, not for configuration. The DD1000i, have their own MIB defining the available parameters.
Parameters
The following parameters are predefined and non-configurable:
Parameter | Value |
---|---|
SNMP version | 3 |
Authentication algorithm | SHA512, digest length 512 bits |
Privacy algorithm | AES-256, key length 256 bits |
Security model | USM |
The following parameters are configurable:
Parameter | Description | Format |
---|---|---|
Security level | Enabling SNMP and defining the security level. | Available options: SNMP disabled and Authentication & Privacy |
Username | Username required when requesting SNMP information from the DD Engine @ DD1000. | String |
Authentication password | Password used to verify the identity of the user. | String, minimum 16 characters including one number, one upper case and one lower case character. No spaces allowed. |
Privacy password | Password used to allow encryption of SNMP information. | String, minimum 16 characters including one number, one upper case and one lower case character. No spaces allowed. |
Logging
From the DD1000i, log information can be sent to a single external, third party log server. The log servers are normally not located at the same facility as the DD1000i device. The DD1000i supports Syslog via both UDP and TCP. Logs can also be exported using the Local admin.
All system logs regarding both services and the DD Engine will be sent to the log server. If the log server is hosted on the data network, the logs will be forwarded via the data interface, and if the log server is hosted on the admin network they are forwarded via the admin interface.
Parameters
