Enterprise Server Options - Device Settings
Device Location Settings section
These options are used to define the server on which Device Manager is installed and the connection and read timeout periods.
Load From Host/Address
Type a Host Name or TCP/IP address of the server from which devices can be loaded for use in the Enterprise Console. The default is the local host address: 127.0.0.1.
Click Load to confirm the entered address and reload any new devices.
Connection Timeout
When the Enterprise Server needs to communicate with a remote device (one of the devices to which it has sent an alert) it abandons its connection attempt after the interval specified here. The default setting is 30 seconds.
The Enterprise Server tries to connect to remote systems when it needs to close an alert, reply to an alert, gather system information or load devices.
Read Timeout
The entry in this field sets the read timeout limit (the time needed to read information) between the Enterprise Console and the remote device. The default setting is 30 seconds.
