Getting Started

ProSafe Network Management Software NMS200

The default login user is netgear, with a password of netgear.

The application server hostname is the name of the system where NMS200 is installed.

A Printer Management - Web layout also comes with the application. Use this for better

performance from web clients.

HTTPS

You can connect to application server securely b

y configuring the included Apache Tomcat

server for secure access. See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/ssl-howto.html,

among other resources.

The following sections discuss typical administrative steps in getting started, once you have

installed NMS200. See Getting Started on page 15 for a list of, and links to, other initial tasks

once you have installed NMS200.

Changing the Session Timeout Period

You must modify two

web.xml

files with the same values to alter the session timeout. One

controls the overall server and the other is the push servers for Async-based views. These

web.xml

files are in the following directories:

/dorado/oware/synergy/tomcat-XX/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml

And

/dorado/oware/synergy/tomcat-xx/webapps/netview/WEB-INF/web.xml

The xml element that contains the session timeout is

<session-config>

<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>

</session-config>

The

portal.properties

file is in

/portal/portal-impl/classes

. The property

containing the session timeout (in minutes) is:

session.timeout=30

Control Panel

To configure access to NMS200, you must be signed in as a user with the Administrator role’s

permissions. (The default admin user has such permissions.) The Manage > Control Panel

menu item opens a screen with the tabs of interest.

Tooltips describing these screens and fields appear when you hover the cursor over fields, or

the blue circle surrounding a question mark next to them.
