Connecting the RSA Surveillance plugin to Security Center clients - Restricted Security Area Surveillance 4.2

When setting up the plugin role for the first time, you must connect the plugin to the messaging service so that communication with Security Center clients is encrypted.

1. From the Config Tool home page, open the Plugins task.
2. Select the Restricted Security Area Surveillance role, and then click the Properties tab.
3. Click Show advanced settings, and then in the RabbitMQ settings section, enter the following:

   IP address

   The IP address of the server that runs RabbitMQ. By default, RabbitMQ is installed along with the plugin, so typically you enter the IP address of the server that hosts the plugin. Do not use 127.0.0.1.

   If you use failover for the plugin role, RabbitMQ should be installed on a different server than the plugin.

   Port

   The TCP port used by Security Center applications, the plugin, the RabbitMQ server, and the tracking system to communicate with each other. All systems must use the same port number. By default, the port number 5671 is used for secure communications.

   If you want to use a port number other than the default, you must change the port settings in RabbitMQ.config.

   User and Password

   Credentials used by the plugin to connect to the RabbitMQ server.

4. (Optional) To add RabbitMQ servers for RabbitMQ failover, click Add (), and then enter the IP address, Port, User, and Password for the server.
5. Click Apply.
