Before you can monitor the restricted areas
secured by your SpotterRF
radar system in Security Center, you must add each SpotterRF
server as a tracking system in Config Tool.
If you are using the Inter-System Gateway (IS Gateway), you must first add your server to a driver container
in the IS Gateway, and then add the driver
container as a tracking system in Config Tool.
Procedure
To add your SpotterRF
server as a tracking system to Security Center with the IS Gateway:
-
Log on to the IS Gateway web portal:
-
Open a web browser and enter the URL
https://<GatewayServer>:4242.
<GatewayServer> is the name or IP address of the server
hosting the IS Gateway service. The default port is
4242. Use the port you configured at installation.
-
Accept the security certificate.
-
On the logon page, enter the
Username and Password and click
Sign in.
The username and password were assigned during the
Inter-System Gateway Configuration step of the IS Gateway service installation.
-
Add a driver container for the tracking system that
you want to add to Security Center:
-
On the homepage of the IS Gateway, click the Container
() tab.
-
Click the button besides the docker
engine label, and then click Add driver container.
-
In the Add Driver Container
window that opens, enter the following information:
- Driver
- Select the driver that you want to install.
- Version
- Select the driver version that you want. The latest version is selected by
default.
- Label
- Label used to identify this driver container in the list of containers on the
left.
- Port
- Port used to communicate with the driver.
- Network adapter
- Select the network adapter used by the driver to communicate with the IS Gateway service.
- Show advanced
- Some drivers require other communication ports to be open. If necessary, click
here to add those ports.
-
Click Add.
The IS Gateway immediately downloads the required driver
container image from the repository. A notification is shown in the upper right corner
of the browser page during the download
process.
After the download completes, the new driver container is
displayed in the list of containers on the left, under the selected docker
engine.
-
Start the driver container. To do so, click the button beside the driver
container label and click Start.
NOTE:
If you are adding multiple driver
containers, make sure that each driver container has a unique port
number. This will prevent any port conflicts if multiple driver
containers are running at the same time.
-
Select the driver container corresponding to the
tracking system that you want to add to Security Center.
-
In the Communication section, enter the following
information:
- IP Address
- The IP address of the server that hosts the NetworkedIO's API.
- Port
- The TCP/IP port for remote access that was configured in the
NetworkedIO application.
- Username and password
- The administrator-level credentials of the NetworkedIO
application.
-
Click Save.
-
Add your driver container as a tracking system to Security Center:
-
From the Config Tool homepage, open the
Plugins task.
-
From the entity tree, select the Restricted Security Area Surveillance plugin role.
-
Click Add an entity (), and select Tracking
system.
The Add tracking
system dialog box opens.
-
From the Type drop-down, select
Inter-System Gateway.
-
In the Name field, enter a name for your
tracking system.
-
From the Model drop-down, select the
driver container you are adding and click Next ().
-
If applicable, configure the specific settings for
your driver and click Next ().
-
If applicable, import the map from the third-party application and
click Finish.
-
Open the Area view task.
After a few seconds, your tracking system (
) should be added to the
area view.
-
In the SpotterRF NetworkedIO application, create a push action
script that connects to the driver.
-
Create RSA
zones.
-
Trigger an intrusion event in a SpotterRF radar zone to confirm that SpotterRF
is communicating with the plugin.
In the Alarm monitoring task, an intrusion
detection alarm from the radar is reported.
To add your SpotterRF
server as a tracking system to Security Center without the IS Gateway:
-
From the Config Tool homepage,
open the Area view task.
-
Click Add an entity (), and then select
Tracking system.
The Add tracking system wizard opens.
-
On the Tracking system information page,
enter the following information:
- Type
- Select SpotterRF.
- Name
- Enter a unique name for this tracking system.
-
On the
Communication page, enter the following
information:
- Server
- The IP address of the server that hosts the NetworkedIO's API.
- Port
- The TCP/IP port for remote access that was configured in the
NetworkedIO application.
- User and password
- The administrator-level credentials of the NetworkedIO
application.
-
Define the connection settings for the RSA HTTP server:
- Listening port
- The HTTP port for this HTTP server. The port number must be unique
for each SpotterRF tracking system that is added to Security Center.
- User and password
- Enter a username and password. These case-sensitive credentials are
used by the SpotterRF push action script to authenticate to the RSA
HTTP server.
The plugin creates an HTTP server locally for this SpotterRF tracking
system. A NetworkedIO push action script will connect to this HTTP server to
communicate and push target movements for the SpotterRF radar zones.
-
Click Refresh connection status () to connect.
-
Click Next page ().
-
On the RSA configuration page,
enter the following information:
- Import on map
- Select the map that you want to use to display the devices in Security Center.
- Events
- Turn on the custom events that you want to monitor for this tracking system.
NOTE: You
can modify this later on the Properties page of the tracking
system.
-
Click Finish.
The
SpotterRF
server and its devices are listed in the
Area view entity tree.
-
In the SpotterRF NetworkedIO application, create a push action script
that connects to the RSA HTTP server.
-
Create RSA
zones.
-
Trigger an intrusion event in a SpotterRF radar zone to confirm that SpotterRF
is communicating with the plugin.
In the Alarm monitoring task, an intrusion
detection alarm from the radar is reported.
