The [system] Section
The [system] section contains parameters that are used by basic components of EliteView, such as
the protocol stacks. There are two ways to change parameter settings in this section. They are:
•
Using the Default Settings command in the Options Menu.
•
Making changes directly inside the NETMGR.INI file. To do this you should know the meaning
of each item.
Description of Parameters in NETMGR.INI
Parameter
Community=
The default community string that appears in the Add Object dialog box.
Map=
Default map opened by the EliteView main map when it starts. If no
default map is assigned, it opens with an empty map.
Polling=
Default polling interval, measured in seconds. This appears in the Add
Object dialog box.
Timeout=
Default timeout period that appears in the Add Object dialog box.
Retries=
The number of default retries that appear in the Add Object dialog box
The [device] Section
The [device] section controls the number of devices EliteView can manage. The Add Object dialog
box should display a complete list. Each device is refered to by a unique name. You can edit this
section to add devices.
Tip:
Adding a device will require editing not only the [device] section, but also other sections as
well. For example, you may wish to define the tools that can be applied to the device by
editing the [tools] section. You also need to add names of bitmaps that show the device
onscreen in the [bitmap] section.
To add a new device,
Edit the total=n line to specify the number of devices you wish to manage. The variable n is a
positive number, which specifies the number of devices that will appear in the list of objects (i.e.,
Add Object dialog box).
Add a line describing the device, using the following format:
Seq=Device_Name,Protocol,Device_Description,Device_Type,Object_ID,Device_Manager
