 Enter the IP Address or DNS Name and a Host Name (up to 254 alphanumeric characters) for
the new network connected Host (and optionally enter a Description).
 Add or edit the Permitted Services (or TCP/UDP port numbers) that are authorized to be used in
controlling this host. Only these permitted services will be forwarded through by SDT to the
Host. All other services (TCP/UDP ports) will be blocked.
 The Logging Level specifies the level of information to be logged and monitored for each Host
access (refer to Chapter 7—Alerts and Logging).
 If the Host is a PDU or UPS power device or a server with IPMI power control, then specify RPC
(for IPMI and PDU) or UPS and the Device Type. The Administrator can then configure these
devices and enable which users have permission to remotely cycle power, etc. (refer to Chapter
8). Otherwise, leave the Device Type set to None.
 If the console server has been configured with distributed Nagios monitoring enabled, then you
will also be presented with Nagios Settings options to enable nominated services on the Host to
be monitored (refer to Chapter 10— Nagios Integration).
 Click Apply. This will create the new Host and also create a new Managed Device (with the same
name).
