Identifying A Network Topology; Workgroup Topology - Honeywell Experion LX Client Manual

System Status Network tree
Note that the scope of SPS is per cluster. By default, all computers added to the network tree
in Configuration Studio are automatically assigned to the server that is hosting the Enterprise
Model Database (EMDB). These computers need to be reassigned in the multiple cluster
server EMDB.
When multiple clusters (or even domains, workgroups or organizational units) are covered in
a single EMDB, it is necessary to assign computers to the appropriate SPS. In all cases, this is
the local Experion server providing that cluster.
For more information, see the System Management Configuration Guide.

Identifying a network topology

Several topologies are shown in this section to illustrate System Status Network tree planning
considerations. The topologies include:
Workgroup
n
Domain with no Organizational Units (OUs)
n
Domain with OUs
n
Multiple domains
n
Attention:
If you are planning to support a Network tree in a Windows domain environment,
the following sections imply that you have Active Directory and Dynamic DNS
already configured. The topologies are narrowly focused on planning
considerations for the System Status display Network tree. For information
regarding network and security best practices for Experion systems, refer to the
Network and Security Planning Guide.

Workgroup topology

In the following figure, a workgroup topology is shown to illustrate planning considerations
to support event notifications to the System Status display and its Network tree.
